Re: MMM Records

YOW....it's getting deep in here .....gotta get on the ol' galoshes to wade through this stuff .....

But since this does reference using common sense to understand the bootleg mentality AND to discern sound quality on said bootlegs, I hope it's alright to post this here.

Aren't you the same guygee who posted this on dime:
"I never believe booters UNLESS I know the label to be very reliable"

Well, guygee, I guess you would say something like that since all your listed torrents at dime are from boots.....or possibly a tape source which is the same as a boot...but maybe it's pre-boot (or maybe not)

Since you "bought" that Miles Davis show, what leads you to believe that you didn't purchase nothing more than a tape copy of a bootleg? What makes you so positive that you "bought" a pre-bootleg cassette??? (Maybe a boot seller 'told' you so?...)

What sort of comparisons did you perform on both the tape/bootleg to be 100% certain that your copy is indeed a a 'pre-bootleg' copy and not just another higher gen copy recorded directly off the bootleg???

For someone not "big" into bootlegs, haven't your only seeds at dime been from bootlegs?

No, it's sarcasm. A little deductive reasoning would have give you the clue you needed. I guess I shouldn't have left off the lol icon.
