And now, a major announcement...

Paul Buff: The Pal Collection

AVAILABLE JANUARY 24, 2011

During 2010, Crossfire rolled out 35 download volumes (a total of 417 tracks) from Paul Buff's archives of Pal and Original Sound recordings. Many of you wanted lossless files rather than MP3s, so we've gone and done it! After more than four years of meticulous work, we are proud to present Paul Buff Presents The Pal And Original Sound Studio Archives: The Collection.

We're offering the entire 35-volume set of recordings as WAV files along with a large, 138-page PDF featuring Greg Russo and Paul Buff's historical liner notes, photos and credits. The whole thing comes on a flash drive. Of course, all of the tracks that feature Frank Zappa as a performer, writer, producer or engineer are part of this set. Not only that, you also get 56 bonus tracks (two featuring Zappa) that were not part of the series. All of these bonus tracks were discovered and/or remastered after the series was completed, and you have to buy the entire set to get them.

The price for Paul Buff Presents The Pal And Original Sound Studio Archives: The Collection (more than 600 tracks) is $350 US for the flash drive (including shipping), but it is now on sale for $275 US. Please feel to write Greg for the entire track listing that is way too long to list here!

Ordering and payment can be made via the ordering page's PayPal link. With your order, Paul Buff's collection will be in your collection!

We have lots of other projects on the way for 2013, but we'll tell you about them later!
