Spent the weekend analyzing the reel box scans and audio recovered from Akihabara last month.

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.'.

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