Was listening to the (awesome) PQ1 Fantom XR soundtrack when all the sudden one of my tracks just stopped abrupty and started playing the next song. "Shootout with Jessie Bains" is the one. My copy is only 22 seconds long but the website says it's over a minute. I tried clearing my cache but it's still the same length (although it does take a milisecond to download. I use firefox and I can't figure out where it keeps the cache files). Is the full file uploaded or do I need to fix something on my end?

BTW, I was also wondering, why is the next track entitled "The Death of Jessie Bains" if he didn't die? Unless they changed that for the remake...Otherwise, how can PQ2 exist?

Tom names them as best as he can remember, I guess. Lots of funny ones over the years. Smiley

Yeah, I thought about that one too. The track really oughta be renamed. I think I will, actually, if someone can come up with a different and better name for it.

How about "The Apparent Death of Jessie Bains" or "The Wounding of the Death Angel" or "The Fall of the Death Angel"? Tongue

I like the last one -- the "fall of".

I've re-uploaded Track 24 -- it must have got corrupted when I originally uploaded it.  Should be fine, now.  Sorry.

I believe I always combined the Shootout and Wounding into one track (like I'll do again in my CD), called "Shootout with Jesse Bains".
EDIT: Aha, here we go: "Shootout With Bains (Closing Scenes)".

Because, as Tom does with CD's, these two tracks are inextricably linked, second starts when the first finishes, so it makes sense to put them together.
