    Does anybody have this in FLAC? https://www.discogs.com/release/634...rom-The-UK-Sept2006-160906-Manchester-Academy

    I have the other one (London 2006), if anyone is interested and I haven't uploaded it yet.

    There were more recordings like that from around 2009 on USB drives instead of CD's. Does anyone have any of those? My idiot ass missed the chance to get one of those off of ebay a few years ago. I can provide screenshots if needed.

    Some ebay misses won't leave my head unfortunately. I have missed an apparent demo CD by a German band (Madsen) a few years too and it never surfaced anywhere, what a bummer.

    Hey everyone!

    First off, happy holidays and hope you all have a wonderful New Year. Thanks for all of the great music over the years.

    Secondly, I have a huge request. I'm really hoping someone has this. It might not have gotten into peoples hands yet but I'm putting it out there. I'm a big fan of the metal supergroup The Damned Things. They recently released a 7 inch of an old song that wasn't available lately called "Trophy Widow" and the b-side for the 7 inch is something that is either nothing or a brand new (previously unreleased) track called "File Missing". If anyone was able to purchase this (it's sold out at only 250 available) and could rip that track, if it's indeed a song, I would be super grateful. I think it's only been available for about a week or so, so if anyone did order it and hasn't gotten it, that's understandable but if someone at some point could do a HQ rip and send it to me, I'd really appreciate it.

    Thank you!!

    While I have the original itunes pre-order track "ain't it the life" in native 256 aac, am wondering i someone has a lossless upgrade by chance or can properly rip this this from Spotify?

    https://open.spotifyDOTcom/album/0nn3RvXC6hjzvSwoBMixg7

    I looked & can't seem to find the 16 track release on Apple Music, but if someone can assist, it'd be appreciated!

    Happy NY & best for 2026 :)

    Bad news about ripping from Spotify - it doesn't appear that there are any markets for which Spotify has the track marked as available:
     "artists": [    {      "external_urls": {        "spotify": "https://open.spotify.com/artist/7jy3rLJdDQY21OgRLCZ9sD"      },      "href": "https://api.spotify.com/v1/artists/7jy3rLJdDQY21OgRLCZ9sD",      "id": "7jy3rLJdDQY21OgRLCZ9sD",      "name": "Foo Fighters",      "type": "artist",      "uri": "spotify:artist:7jy3rLJdDQY21OgRLCZ9sD"    }  ],  "available_markets": [],  "disc_number": 1,  "duration_ms": 282040,  "explicit": false,  "external_ids": {    "isrc": "USRW30600055"  },  "external_urls": {    "spotify": "https://open.spotify.com/track/0gXZYvZfmmCLz4Wl1rnSs9"  },  "href": "https://api.spotify.com/v1/tracks/0gXZYvZfmmCLz4Wl1rnSs9",  "id": "0gXZYvZfmmCLz4Wl1rnSs9",  "name": "Ain't It The Life",  "popularity": 0,  "preview_url": null,  "track_number": 16,  "type": "track",  "uri": "spotify:track:0gXZYvZfmmCLz4Wl1rnSs9",  "is_local": false
    
    We'll have to hope someone has another source for this track :(

    Which may have turned out to be a user on SoulSeek. This file passed checks in Fakin' The Funk and looked right in Spek for a losslessly-sourced FLAC file. I've uploaded it here and the password is my username.

    Does anybody have a HQ rip of the Bowling For Soup & Less Than Jake split vinyl "Bait & Switch Vol. 1"?

    That would explain it!

    I'm guessing there's still no FLAC vinyl rip of Stop Whispering available, anyone?

    I have to apologize. My latest CD Rips were not good at all, they all had audible clicks which I missed unfortunately. Ever since I have to use an external BD drive my good ol' FairStars CD Ripper has problems ripping, apparently and those rips are not acceptable. Don't know why nobody told me haha

    So here are the last CD Rips I did:

    Good Charlotte - Greatest Hits (Japan)
    474.8 MB folder on MEGA

    Andrew W.K. - Premium Covers (Japan)
    352.55 MB folder on MEGA

    Hybrid Children - Stardom is Here (Japan) [Nobody requested it, but just in case]
    344.82 MB folder on MEGA

    Foo Fighters - A Hero of Our Time (Live in Japan, Bootleg)
    763.17 MB folder on MEGA

    Green Day - Live in Jakarta (Bootleg)
    735.26 MB folder on MEGA

    After a number of false starts I believe I can finally say "Yes" to this! To be clear: This is not my transfer but I have done all that I can to verify it as genuine - the track lengths are what I would expect, Fakin' the Funk reports the actual bit rate matches the advertised bit rate, the spectrogram looks 'right' in Spek, Lossless Audio Checker reports it as 'Clean', and a listen through with headphones presents all the hallmarks of a vinyl transfer. So, while I ask that you take this transfer with an appropriate dose of skepticism, I do suggest that you take this transfer and enjoy; I certainly have!

    The transfer is encoded using FLAC at 24/96.

    The file is here and the password is my username.
