Trust Sessions Notes:

This collection of tracks from the Trust sessions came to me (thank you my friend) in Flac format, they originate from cassette tapes, the equipment and software used for the transfer is unknown.
It came with notes for each track that I have tried my best to verify and add to (thank you to the original researcher, excellent job).
Should any of this information be incorrect please let me know by personal message.

Tracks: 1-10 sound like early live in the studio rehearsals, none have been released.
Tracks: 11-30 are the same basic performances which appear on either the album or the bonus disc but they all differ in some way from the released versions.
I have not removed the tracks that sound exactly the same as the released versions in case they have some differences that I missed.

Trust Notes:
There are no specific recording dates in the original info but, at http://www.inanotherroom.com/trust.html we are told that "There is some confusion surrounding the Trust recording sessions. Elvis wrote in the Ryko liner notes that the album "was recorded in late October and early November of 1980 at DJM Studios near Holborn, although we inevitably returned to Eden Studios for the final sessions." Despite this suggestion that the majority of the album was recorded at DJM, the Rhino liner notes have Elvis telling of the DJM sessions being such a disaster that "it quickly became apparent" that a different studio was needed, and "we effectively began again" upon moving to Eden.
Rhino's track notes add to the confusion by repeating "late October/early November" as the date of the album sessions, but also offering July 1980 as the recording date for outtakes from the DJM sessions and September 1980 for additional Eden recordings. Certainly it seems unlikely that the band would return to DJM in late October if the July sessions had not gone well. I will operate under the assumption that the Trust sessions encompassed all of the reported dates: July at DJM and September at Eden, with the final sessions taking place in late October and early November, presumably also at Eden."
