Voyage 34?

[Shawn]

Hey folks,

I was wondering if anyone could tell me where the samples from Porcupine Tree's "Voyage 34" came from?  It sounds like an old vinyl record with the account of the bad LSD trip.  Does anyone have any info on where one could hear the whole thing?

From the official porcupine tree site...

Unfortunately, the actual titles of the vinyl sources are not revealed... let the turd hunt begin!

Voyage 35 (fan site):
Before we start 2 questions which have puzzled me for a while. Firstly where do the samples from Voyage 34 come from, and on what format was this (TV documentary or recorded)?

Steven Wilson:
They come from LSD propaganda vinyl albums that were issued in the late 60's - some were pro-LSD (the one's made by Timothy Leary) and others against (including the one that features the transparently contrived 34th bum trip of "Brian"). The cover to V34 is a pastiche of the cover to a Timothy Leary album called L.S.D. which some of the samples are taken from. These albums are very rare in original vinyl pressings, but I believe some have been reissued on CD - mainly the Leary ones.

Thanks!  Much appreciated.

I'd like to get my hands on the recordings of Marshall Applewhite (Doe) that were used on Last Chance to Evacuate Planet Earth Before It Is Recycled. I've searched, but have so far come up empty.

I found the transcript of the tapes but not the actual tapes themselves.  Freaky stuff man.  Seriously f'd up!
