Abbey Normal rehearsal, recorded on oddball clock-alarm-cassette recorder. Is this a copy of the "rehearsal #3" tape? Or is this the original, and that's the copy? My solo in "Shoobee Doobee" is kind of unmistakable, so it has to be the same session. Cleaned & demagnetized heads right before starting transcription. Recorded at [[2872 Danielsville Road]].

** "Somehow I Don't Think So"
** "Shoobee Doobee"
** "Think About It"
** re-take of ending

** "Harmony"
** "Guitar Lonely" - false start
** "Guitar Lonely" (music, vocals: Tim Kunkle; lyrics: Brian Crum)
** (cut)
** remains of older recording
*** ending of some song of Tim's
*** talking and noodling around
*** Interplanetary Love Affair - gets lost in the middle
*** Interplanetary Love Affair - tape ends after first verse
* '''Side B''': sounds like another rehearsal with Abbey Normal
** cuts in to "Two Ways",
*** played a bit fast (maybe this is how Tim likes it?)
*** keyboard solo is kind of interesting, briefly...
** Tim explains how it works musically
** "Interplanetary Love Affair" - passable? (Brad seems to know all the riffs this time)
*** Tim's vocals at the end kind of... gaah.
*** End kind of stumbles
** "Them"/"Same Spot Twice"
** lots of talking
** [cut to older recording - probably earlier rehearsal at 2872]
** cuts into "Somehow I Don't Think So" (keyboard on plinky organ patch; somewhat slower pace; sloppy)

** cuts off

===APX-101===
* Monorail to Nowhere - source for mix with Rhodes intro
 
Not formally listed, but here's what I heard listening to it just now (towards the end):
* sort of dreamy guitar thing
* The Penguin Song (original tracks?)
* "Perpetual Motion" on stereo piano (fading poorly into "middle of" mix, which is cut off by the tape ending)
===APX-102===
''from digitized files''
* Part 1
** Piano thing which turns out to be basically Styx "Why Me"
** "Hey in the night" thing, kinda terrible performance but might be usable as part of something if re-recorded
** "Go Away" on piano at double-speed
** ibid, take 2, slightly different, vocals?
* Part 2
** gated guitar with solo guitar, kinda interesting, might be salvageable
* Part 3
** [[Your Brilliant Career]] overdub: vocals
