First off, new additions/upgrades:
hanwaker's helping improve the boots list by kindly sending me a DVD with files he has in FLAC that up until now have been available via the list only as MP3s. Plus, he included some show recordings that weren't listed till now. Note "Clay Allison" is the early name for "Opal" which later morphed into "Mazzy Star."
-Clay Allison - 1984-05-24, Ann Arbor Michigan FLAC
http://depositfiles.com/files/h6kvwun17The Ann Arbor show is new to the list. Pretty good sound quality, & aside from Kendra singing C.A./Opal songs it includes a nice version of David singing a standout song, "No Easy Way Down" from his earlier band "Rain Parade."

https://mega.co.nz/#!yFF0jIoZ!kFbJPOgTh ... p-yNZ5OG90The prior version listed in the boots list was MP3. I've added a bonus extra track (in MP3) which does not appear on the Opal Early Recordings II album. It's Opal - If the Sun Don't Shine, an adaptation of Syd Barrett's Pink Floyd song Jug Band Blues. David Roback sings on it. It's from a 1987 Syd Barrett tribute album, "Beyond the Wildwood." Thanks go to forum member opalstardream for it.
-Kendra Smith - The Guild of Temporal Adventurers 1992. Her out-of-print solo album FLAC:

https://mega.co.nz/#!yJsTlabL!tFQIVmSMf ... Bl4VAXi5OIThis is yet another repaired version of the The Mint show. At one point, the FLAC file available via the boots list was missing one song, "Rock Section." Then I replaced that file with a new one adding the missing "Rock Section." Unfortunately I did not have a lossless FLAC version of the song at that point (instead I had a lossy AAC I converted to FLAC), though the rest of the show was in FLAC. This new, improved file restores the show to all FLAC, thanks to hanwaker.
Here's a link to DL the song "Rock Section" alone,in FLAC, for those who want to replace the one song in the The Mint recording:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzgPlY ... sp=sharinghanwaker's DVD also contains some other recordings, including a bunch of FLAC versions of Hope's collaborations with other artists. At some point, I'll upgrade the Hope collabs. file replacing MP3s with FLACS where possible.
Thank you Uli !

Re. Yucef's problems DL-ing the Mazzy 1990 Woody's show. That File Factory file shows lots of DLs, & no one else has reported problems. I know File Factory itself seems to have connection problems, & uploads & downloads can get unexpectedly terminated, in case that's what may have happened with you. Here's a new second DL source for it:

The Primavera video I recorded myself from the livestream is posted to the boots list. I also have an audio recording in MP3 of it, one I neglected to add to the boots list. But my audio file for "Blue Flower," seems intact & plays fine, except for a bit of crackling & buzzing sounds which are also found in my video version.
