Dutch movie director Martin Koolhoven sent out an unusual request on Twitter a few days ago. While many filmmakers fear The Pirate Bay, Koolhoven asked his followers to upload a copy of his 1999 film “” to the site. “Can someone just upload Suzy Q to The Pirate Bay?”.
The director doesn’t own all copyrights to the movie himself, but grew frustrated by the fact that his film is not available through legal channels. The TV-film, which also features the film debut of Game of Thrones actress, was paid for with public money but after the music rights expired nobody was able to see it anymore. The main problem is with the film’s music, which includes tracks from popular artists such as The Rolling Stones and Jimi Hendrix. This prevented the film from being released in movie theaters and on DVD, and the TV-network also chose not to extend the licenses for the TV rights. Since the music was no longer licensed it couldn’t be shown anymore, not even on the websites of the public broadcasters.
“To me, it felt like the movie had died,” Koolhoven tells TorrentFreak. Hoping to bring it back to life, Koolhoven tweeted his upload request, and it didn’t take long before. Within a few hours the first copy of the film was uploaded, and several more were added in the days that followed. “I had no idea the media would pick it up the way they did. That generated more media attention. At first I hesitated because I didn’t want to become the poster boy for the download-movement. All I wanted was for people to be able to see my film,” Koolhoven says.
Unfortunately the first upload of the movie that appeared on The Pirate Bay was in very bad quality. So the director decided to go all the way and upload himself. “I figured it would probably be thrown off after a few days, due to the music rights issue, but at least people could see a half decent version instead of watching the horrible copy that was available on The Pirate Bay,” Koolhoven tells us.
Interestingly, YouTube didn’t remove the film but asked the director whether he had the right to use the songs. Since this is not the case the money made through the advertisements on YouTube will go to the proper rightsholders.
“We’re a few days later now and the movie is still on YouTube. And people have started to put higher quality torrents of Suzy Q on Pirate Bay. Even 720p can be found, I’ve heard,” Koolhoven notes.
While the director is not the exclusive rightsholder, he does see himself as the moral owner of the title. Also, he isn’t shying away from encouraging others to download and share the film. In essence, he believes that all movies should be available online, as long as it’s commercially viable.
It shouldn’t hurt movie theater attendance either, as that remains the main source of income for most films and the best viewing experience. “I know not everybody cares about that, but I do. The cinema is the best place to see movies. If you haven’t seen ‘Once Upon a Time in the West’ on the big screen, you just haven’t seen it,” Koolhoven says. In the case of Suzy Q, however, people are free to grab a pirated copy. “Everyone can go to The Pirate Bay and grab a copy.
People are actually not supposed to, but they have my permission to download Susy Q,” Koolhoven said in an with Geenstijl. “If other people download the movie and help with seeding then the download time will be even more reasonable,” Koolhoven adds.

Jimi Hendrix Discography (19 albums, 31 CD's, covers) A most awesome Hendrix collection! Hendrix only put out a handful of albums during his lifetime, but over the years many live concerts, unpublished recordings and compilation albums have been released. Included here are not only those original studio albums, but some of the best of the rest. Also included is a simply amazing Hendrix tribute album by Popa Chubby.
Electric Chubbyland. If you're a Hendrix fan, you're gonna LOVE it. Enjoy:-) ALBUM LIST: (Most are 192 kbps.) 1967 - Are You Experienced?
There are finally seeders for the flac torrent of the 1973 double LP vinyl rip of 'Sound Track Recordings From The Film Jimi Hendrix' available on Pirate Bay. It appears since October 2008 there were no seeds. I tried unsuccessfully for months to get a complete download. Last night 2 seeds showed up and I nabbed it.
There are no artwork scans included but the audio fidelity is nice. It's out of print, unreleased on CD. It's nice to be reunited with something from my vinyl days. Nonhuman This set has my favourite ever version of Purple Haze.The only place apart from the Berkley Video/DVD that it is available.Thanks for the heads up.I'm grabbing just that 1 track. I think possibly it's a mixing/mastering of the source material for the vinyl release that's narrowed the soundscape. On Wild Thing the percussion is very much forward.
On Machine Gun the radio bleedthrough seems overtly accentuated. I remember I appreciated this vinyl set more for its certain sound rather than for the track selections. I suspect there was so much equalization applied to accomodate the vinyl format that the production tape if slicked straight into digital instead of vinyl might sound entirely unacceptable to me. The Johnny B Goode track in particular seems highly compressed, and I would always crank it to wring some life from it. On Hey Joe, there seems to be a softness to the vocals and throat of the guitar distortion that I always appreciated across vacuum tubes back in my vinyl days. Perhaps these asthetics are so highly subjective as to be of utility to me only. But that's music, a groove and a blind-eye sometimes.
Vinyl was a bit of a monster, it spoke differently through all of my various systems, and was inherently inadequate for my needs. The ultimate marriage of digital to vacuum tubes set me free. Now it's all about the music. I would love to have another transfer of this vinyl set to hear what might be hiding in those grooves, as long as zero equalization is applied in the process. I think of equalization as Fripp did of Mellotrons. 'Tuning a Mellotron doesn't.'
Just found one more version of this album's transfer. It appears to be the ORIGINAL version of the transfer available currently on Pirate Bay. The clicks and edits are the same but it seems that someone edited the original version using only one channel of the transfer and normalized or cut the overall volume a little (the origianl version is clipping a little). To make it short, I'll post another, much better transfer and include samples of the current Pirate Bay version as well as the version I think it was edited from.
See you soon. Mods, please let me know if I can post it all here. Just found one more version of this album's transfer.

Are you stating that you have a completely different transfer, constructed by yourself from your vinyl, exclusively independent from the pirate bay sources? Or are you bringing forth yet another unverifiable set of files of indeterminate lineage? Without an uncompromised and verifiable environment of file origination, the utility of objective comparison of files is negated.
I'll enjoy any transfer available, but the need for a verified transfer will still exist. I hope you are the man for the job! Ultrashell crack. By the way the Film Jimi Hendrix was released on DVD in 2005.
I haven't viewed it yet, however I have it in AVI format. I don't know how close the soundtrack vinyl resembled the original VHS or the subsequent DVD track listing. Unfortunately a 'friend' never returned my VHS version some 20 years ago. As far as getting posted on CTT, I avoid downloading anything that contains ommissions from original setlists. If you can provide a vinyl transfer created by yourself, I'd be inclined to throw out any unverified files I now have, and never revisit them.

When I downloaded the files I have now, I wondered if someone had extracted the DVD audio to construct it. The absence of the album artwork has always seemed suspicious given the fact that the uploader cared enough to use FLAC format. All in all, I can't see why a proper vinyl transfer of this album is elusive. Didn't anyone else like it?
Good luck on this adventure, and thank you very much for your interest in it. Thank you again for the new Sound Track recordings torrent on PB. It has been popular, I've seeded more than 7.0 ratio so far. There is a great disparity in sound between the previous transfer and Emilovious transfer. The gain is higher on the previous transfer which provides more bass with my default flat tone settings, and so I'm going to keep both transfers for my own use. However I will seed only the Emilovious transfer.
The artwork is delightful and the commentary is very much appreciated. The attention to detail in this transfer defines the difference between hobby and craft. I especially appreciate the absence of additional equalization.
The inherent characteristics of vinyl and user selection of analog equipment has always been complicated and subjective enough for my ears. I'm not much of a fan of tone controls at any stage of reproduction. Only in pursuit of faithful bass reproduction am I compelled to react to the gross neglect of 'professional' music industry mastering of recordings for release. I remember Jimi Hendrix remarking how his engineer was using some bass recording enhancement technique so that it would sound good even if you had a transistor radio. I think those decisions were tragic.
Unfortunately even present day recordings reveal the bass material to be the most abused and sacrificed element of professional releases. Some call it culture, such as is evident today from the 'boom boom' Hondas spewing muzak where nobody else wants it. Today there exists a 'volume war' staged by music industry marketing execs with an aversion to principle in faithful recording, resulting in an absence of dynamic range despite the commonplace availability of technology capable of faithful reproduction. It reminds me of Zappa's lyrics to 'Dumb All Over', because that mess is more than 'a little ugly on the side'. Again I think those decisions are tragic. The Emilovious transfer reveals a more fluid bass guitar which is greatly appreciated.
My powered subwoofer crossover is set about 30HZ and there is very little to be amplified at or below that frequency. In my vinyl days I used to run a DBX 110 subharmonic synthesizer to recreate the lowest bass frequencies that are often filtered out during mastering. This set reminds me that there may be a time when I may wish to introduce DBX technology into my system for vinyl transfers. Judging by the quality and fluidity of the bass material extracted by this analog stylus/tonearm system, there would have been very nice lower bass material present in the original performance which could be recreated by a DBX subharmonic synthesizer.
It's wonderful to have this vinyl memorial resurrected, thank you kindly. Wishing everyone a very nice day. Why don't interested parties just buy a clean copy of the vinyl and play it.
Jimi Hendrix Are You Experienced Lyrics
On a reasonable system (or better if you can afford it) it sounds oh so good. Plus you get the pleasure of handling a thing of such lovelyness:-) I can only speak for myself, but simple space limitations is the answer. With a family I no longer have the space for the thousands of vinyl LPs I used to have. In a perfect world I would have a large enough space to house my family with a dedicated music listening room, a recording studio as well room for the rest of my family. I do miss the beautiful attention once paid to packaging as well as the sound of a well mastered vinyl LP. Such is the price I have paid for familial bliss.

Such is the price I have paid for familial bliss. I can dig it:-) We all give things different priority. I just refuse to compromise more than required for audio and live with(out) space issues!
