What's The Story With History Teacher?

I'm very late as usual, though I can't help but wonder if the tracks on the HT bootleg are from lossless sources. Seems unlikely given the unauthorized aspect, but it's nice to dream.

I think most of these can be found on youtube

idk, I have the feeling that a lot of us have flawed copies of this wonderful thing? Noticed there were some clicks/noise in a few of the songs (M4A copy I stumbled across eons ago) that are not present in the YouTube version. 

Managed to get another copy from a friend recently, but that one also has clicks/noise + a copying error that causes ~12s of audio to be missing from "2-09 Umbrellaless".

I'll try to consolidate the two copies I have and clean up the clicks with Cool Edit Pro, but I hope someone has a "correct" copy without any of these issues.

Seems the easiest way to tell if your copy is OK or not is to play the last track on Disc 1 (lots of clicks/spikes in both copies here):

I don't think you'll ever find lossless copies of these songs. Maybe if someone had the original cassettes of the albums contained on HT and a means to rip them we could get better quality files.
