Which is likely what we are enjoying now, owing to it being leaked.
This thing could be cleaned-up and de-popped. There is the possibility that the "leak" is actually a fake, that someone with the Japanese bootleg and an old vinyl of the debut album and a mixing program constructed it.
I do confirm that the sound quality though
is better overall than my cd-r lossless copy of the Japanese boot. But that may be because encoding and audio archiving programs are better nowadays than in the day when the Japanese bootleg was made.
The vocals are much clearer from Hill's acetate. There are some parts though were the music sounds better on the Japanese bootleg and if one has the actual Japanese vinyl, it stands to reason that it would sound better than the .mp3s (in theory) ripped from the recording Hill is selling.
