I was generously given this music on a 90 min Maxell XL2S tape by a friend of Trey's, who (among many others) had
received the tape from Trey as a Christmas present a few days before Christmas in 1985. As this friend put it, much
of this tape "is the fruit of an entire semester of 4-track experiments by Trey . . . I remember him doing overdubs of all
4 vocal parts on YEM, and using the pitch control knob to vary the harmony."

Trey's "4 Track Project" is profound. Most of it was recorded in Fall/Winter 1985, possibly on Mike's 4 track, but I am not
sure. Trey is his own worst critic and he may reflect back upon this music and scoff (or perhaps worse), but his creative
genius, his humor, and his love of music brilliantly shine through in this material. Whatever he might think about his early
music, he created this tape out of love for his family and friends, and it shows.

A few of these tracks appear on Bivouac Jaun, while other tracks (eg And So to Bed, YEM) appear on "The White Tape,"
which I hope you purchase from Phish.com, http://www.phish.com/releases/detail.php?ID=26.
It is possible that some of the versions on here are somewhat different from those on The White Tape and Jaun;
I have not analyzed them closely. See pages 13-14 of The Phish Companion 2d edition for more information.

The master cassette and my copy conclude with "A Last Surprise," i.e., 12/1/84 Skippy the Wondermouse > Fluffhead,
featuring The Dude of Life. I debated whether to include it here, because it already circulates in low gen, it cuts on here
at the very end, and it is "just" filler. But it is what Trey put on here as filler, so here you go.


Is this the longest .txt file for a torrent that is only of *one* disc ? (lol) Hope you appreciate this, in any event.
Merry Christmas.
