Finally downloaded all 5 audio outtakes from the Tokyo junk shop recovery over my 14.4k modem.

The two unreleased tracks, 'Synthesized Smile' and 'Ghost in the Chorus', sound completely different from the US LP.
Every single tape box is stamped 'VOICE PRINT: GEN-3' in purple ink. That matches the Ashford memo from 1989.

Who was the engineer at the Akasaka branch? The studio log only lists the initials 'M.H.'.

Line 11 in the relay table says: 'The key is the pitch of my voice.' The Akasaka reels prove the pitch was modified.

Voice Print GEN-3 means there were two earlier generations. What were GEN-1 and GEN-2?
