Rereading this I think I could be misunderstood on the amount of studio material. The amount is pretty profound, towards the end we just recorded all the time and documented almost all of the original songs. As well there were large number of sessions for the second album only a small amount of the recorded material was ever used.
The multi-track tapes fill about 10 milk crates and there are about 3 banker boxes filled with cassettes, videos and DATs I have yet to get too. There are three albums that were complete and mixed that I mentioned in my previous post I would estimate 4 additional albums of studio material without using multiple versions of songs, covers, rehearsal demos or live recordings.
I was listening to a cassette of a live show from Hank's Crystal Palace on the Bowery with The Willies the other night and it was a lot of fun not very hi-fi though. I think if there is any interest I might get Roy to sign off on me letting folks hear a MP3 of it. If I can figure out how to get it hosted.
