The October Record Collector has a pretty Fab, albeit aurally anally retentive feature on the

In a generally good interview with cantankerous remaster guvner, Allan Rouse-pictured at left- the whole ground Hog Day 4 year torturous process is explained, and I guess cuz he was there, we will have to take Rouse's word for it.

But when the RC interviewer broaches the subject of how all the high-quality bootlegs-which are generally attributed to John Barrett and/or a certain Philly DJ-got loose out of Apple vaults back in the late 80s, Mr. Rouse appears to be on tea.
-
Rouse actually puts forth the (unlikely) proposition that those great boots were the result/fault of individual Fabs' taking home demos and acetates!!!
-
Cor blimey, wot a load of rubbish!
-
Best be assured that whatever way the tape dubs got loose, only a small number of versions were/are the result of wayward take-homes.

Although Rouse was very forthcoming when it came to why the 24 bit remasters were dumbed down to 16 bit for the actual CD transfers.

"(We) know that 99 percent of (the) people will hear it as an MP3 file...and not complain!"

Ah, Apple/Rutle Corps: dontcha just luv 'em!!!
