Lindsey Buckingham - Gift Of Screws
Unreleased album from 2000 / 2001

joeyjay notes: This is a re-seed from February 2005, originally
posted by fmfanuk, who gets all due credit here. This is fabulous stuff, and all original files are included. The only difference is the actual folder name, which I had to create because person who archived it for me went inside the folder before saving all the files. Anyway, I know this was a hugely popular DL at the time but thought I'd offer up again for those who missed it or are relatively new to DIME. Thanks again to fmfanuk for the original share. The original notes are below. Enjoy ...


Linage: CDR -> EAC -> WAV -> FLAC

Included is the unofficial lyric booklet that was collated from internet fan data.
This file is included as a zip file with the file extension changed to gosbooklet.re-name-to-zip othderwise the file could not be uploaded.

There's a copy going on www.throwndown.net.

If not, have a word in the forums and I'm sure someone will help.

Thank you for the information, I will try this.

At one point there was a lossless solo version of Peacekeeper. Anyone seen that or can someone post it? And if there's one of "Big Yellow Taxi"...

Thanks,
John

long time
 

I not sure if this is just me, but are torrent file downloads supposed to take a long time? I downloaded software to change files from throwndown.net and I am always keep getting a little window on my computer saying there is one more day to go. Before it was saying there were 14 hours to go, then 16, and now it's up to a day and 17 hours. It also saying 11 percent has been downloaded.

Is this normal? I havenot done this before.

In short. Yes, it can take a long time to download a torrent file. It all depends on how many people are seeding the file that you are receiving. The more seeders the better and quicker you will receive.

For more information, I point you in the direction of the chit chat area of this site where there's a thread called "What the hell is a torrent file"... alot of helpful information can be located here:

Thank you again. Kowing it's a normal thing, this slowness, at least I know what to expect.

I turned on my seed, so it should go faster for you now. :)

WOW, thanks you for that!

If anything goes arwy, I have a copy with me (on the computer still, I belive) that I could upload.

My download window has been stuck on 22.8 % all day. I am begin to think this is not being a successful operation.

I have both peacekeeper and big yellow taxi. Still not sure about the lossless thing. My tracks are the ones form about 4 years ago.

I dunno if I did something wrong downloading them, but while the sound quality blows away the old MP3's, I cannot bring myself to listen to them because the beginnings are missing off some of the songs.

Did I do something wrong or do they all have the beginning of some of the songs missing?

Does anyone by chance know where i can find the unreleased Gift of Screws in FLAC? Ive never heard it before. Thank you in advance!
