Every single tape box is stamped 'VOICE PRINT: GEN-3' in purple ink. That matches the Ashford memo from 1989. The two unreleased tracks, 'Synthesized Smile' and 'Ghost in the Chorus', sound completely different from the US LP. Who was the engineer at the Akasaka branch? The studio log only lists the initials 'M.H.'. -- Lucia Andersson "Hardware is temporary. The signal survives."
