The Smiths & Morrissey Bootlegs

THE SMITHS & MORRISSEY CDR Bootlegs

Recording Rules:

First of all, I don´t like Bootlegs sourced from MP3, the quality is always lower than the original, no matter you use 160kbps or more if you have only MP3 sourced you need to advise me before make any arrangement. I prefer the old CDR to CDR copy, keep in mind like you I´m able to download this shows in the net and I´m looking for the original copies only to make trades (Not MP3 sourced) instead trades I make a MP3 bootleg available for free in the downloads section.

If you don´t know the source of your bootleg look at google for a software called TAU Analizer, the program can check the frequencies and show if you have a CD sourced copy or a MP3 sourced copy.

I don´t have a prefered CDR any known brand will be accept. If possible, though, stay away from cheap recordable discs. Please do not burn CD's that have scratches or any other imperfection because It may play fine and not skip on your CD player, but those scratches will be read on the laser of the CD player and will be recorded onto the CDR as "clicks" which are very loud and will ruin the music.

Use the "disc-at-once"(DAO) or "fast-on-the-fly"(FOTF) method when recording to avoid gaps in between songs.

Cover Artwork Rules:

Please send excellent quality scans of the original artwork by email, the format must be JPEG or TIFF, at least 150 DPI, 100% original size. You will be able to download all covers I have from the cover section in the website

Shipping Rules:

Hang on to your jewel cases, they take up to much room in the envelope and tend to break during the mailing process.

Send the CD's in protected sleeves to avoid damage. The cost of shipping is also lower without jewel cases. Send the CD's in a bubble lined or any other protective package to avoid damage to the CD's. I always send by registered airmail please try send me in the same way

Attention: In our first trade I will wait your discs arrive here before ship your discs, it´s a security measure and I will not change this, in the next trades I will ship in the same day you ship

Other Things:

Contact me as soon as you receive yours so I know you got them, and I will do the same.
