Looking for bones and finding treasure
What are you on with?
fair question...
I have said many times that "10-4 all" is among my favourite things in the world, and I have spent days and days, over years and years, shuffling those songs. I heard all of those, a lot, before I ever heard a Throwing Muses version.
So... when I think of those songs, something like "Fish", I think of Kristin Hersh and an acoustic guitar.
​
In case​ you don't know what the 10-4 project was all about, here's the link the the KH website, where you can read all about it. You can also still buy downloads of all 5 volumes of "10-4 all" here

An odd view I guess, compared to most people, and I'm not insulting those Muses versions, I was just sorting out which ones have never been acousticated, so that I can make myself *really* listen to those songs, and I thought I'd post them in case anyone else was interested.
​I've only done up to, and including "Uses".
"Purgatory/Paradise" was the first Muses album I heard as it came out, and is a completely different kettle of business. The Instrumental of that is a really great thing. Though I'll likely add a small bones list for this and "Sun Racket" at some point.
A Small favour...
As I said, 10-4 All is among my favourite things in the world.
I am always looking for any "10-4 you" personal sets, so, if you bought one of these, even if there are no new songs on your recording, please get in touch via email, or using the links below.
​
I love *all* the bones versions, and it would make me very happy indeed to get hold of some more of these.
I already have a few, that people were kind enough to share at the time, including some songs that don't appear on 10-4 all. I will link to my uploads of these, and the live versions (where possible) on the internet archive.
I think I still have a couple to upload, I'll do that asap.
