It's been quite some time since I learned of this session. 😅

Of the 7 tracks available I have only managed to find one in lossless resolution. The others remain as mp3 and low bitrates too. Also, I haven't yet found a version of Seventeen Seconds that is undamaged.

I there a clean version of this session track and are the songs available as lossless anywhere, except for the Lennon cover?

It would be so perfect

Oh yes. 😉

The Cure went into Westside Studios and recorded 7 tracks, only 4 were used for the Yahoo Launch Party. At the same time they did the song for the Lennon thing.

Three Imaginary Boys
Seventeen Seconds
M
Faith
Pornography
The Figurehead
Love (for the Lennon Tribute, IMAGINE)

I hate the Beatles, so I passed on the cover, but love the new studio versions of the The Cure songs. 😅 I wish they had redone Primary.

All the songs are freely available at the take away shop Steve.

Edit: I'm a bit of a fan of session tracks so have actively searched for everything I can find by my favourite artists. 🔎

Ahah! I see it now

Studio recording sessions for JOHN LENNON tribute album and other exclusive digital downloads.

London, Westside Studios, UK, 05.05.
1, Love (John Lennon cover)
2, Three imaginary boys *
3, Seventeen seconds *
4, Faith *
5, Pornography *
6, The figurehead
7, M
8, Fire in Cairo
9, The drowning man

* Re-recorded versions for 4PLAY iTunes digital EP.
The other re-recorded songs were recorded for an online Yahoo! session.

That 4Play ep is riddled with pops & clicks as far as i know. I'm not sure if I ever heard a clean version

Fire in Cairo and The Drowning Man were not available/streamed AFAIK.

LOVE is probably not allowed in sharing.

www.thecure.com/release/4play-itunes-exclusive/

I can share the version of M and The Figurehead later.

I don't use Apple, or iTunes. So I can't determine if the 4Play bundle is still available.

I thought your comment of shop availability meant that the other Yahoo session tracks (not M, or The Figurehead) were available online somewhere..

I can't explain why the iTunes bundle is not available but still advertised on TC's site. It's not in the South African store.

Obviously, someone bought it when it was available. 😅 I had hoped to get the original download myself as the mp3's I have are likely trancodes from aac.

However, once I have established my bona fides here, I will happily share what I have found.
