Levitate Vinyl

So it was not easy to leave those songs off the LP. I will explain. In 2001 we made records that could take advantage of the longer playing time the CD format offered. LP records, on the other hand, really should not me any longer than 35 minutes there or about. Any longer and the low end reproduction drop significantly. That would be unacceptable in an Idaho record. Now Talitres could have opted to make it a double LP with extra tracks but since I know that Sean who owns the table would not want to put that kind of cash down....i never even brought it up in conversation. Perhaps I should of? Did you guys notice that "under' from HOP is significantly shorter?

Like Andrew and Alex, also very grateful for the Levitate vinyl - one of my favourite records all time - but a bit dissapointed that it doesnâ€™t feature Casa Mia.

Thank you to Jeff and Talitres for this release. It sounds wonderful. I dreamt of adding HOP and Levitate to my collection for years--so grateful you were able to make it happen!

So grateful for the Levitate vinyl, but it looks like Levitate Pt. 2 and Casa Mia are omitted from this pressing. Is there a story behind why those were left off?
