i got these 2 cds given to me from a collector friend (who wasn't all that into pj). anyway the cds are from when no code was in the mastering phase, i guess, and are labeled Gateway Mastering Studios in Portland, ME. the individual tracks all sound the same as the album but it looked like they were brainstorming different album sequences.

Aside from the tracklisting, the only different thing I noticed after a listen through was that "Who You Are" has the "avalanche, falling fast" line at 1:17, rather than "circumstance, clapping hands."

Can anyone offer some insight into this? Does it look like the real deal? Is it worth anything?

Thanks!
