IncompletePage
Stuff the page still needs: 1) Artwork for the cassette versions of "Quietly" and "Channels". 2) Were the other versions of "Compilation" and "Somewhere Forgotten" released at the same time as the Bandcamp versions? Or did they have separate release dates? 3) Was the cassette version of the "Hexpressionist" split ever released? 4) For ALL tapes where no "side A" or "side B" note is given, which songs are on each side??
