Please PM me and I will send you a link to my server where you can download them all.

IMPORTANT: Nobody should be distributing or seeking mp3s of officially published tracks on these forums. There are rules written here somewhere about that. But this place shouldn't become somewhere for that - It doesn't matter if people have already bought the album and want an alternate version - this kind of practice should be nipped in the bud and stopped immediately.
Don't really know how I feel about any of this. What was released was released as they intended.. they are not "mistakes" or "glitches" when they are presented like that on every format - that is obviously how they were finished in the master file.
If by fixing hiss you mean that you have reduced or completely blocked out a frequency range then count me out. I'd like to think that the tracks were all provided in a cleaned state, clean enough that they can be enjoyed but not so much that the original and integral quality of the audio is damaged or undermined.
There is hiss on a live recording from 1992 because the recording happened to have hiss on it - any extra work done on it will damage the recording.
I'll take the hiss.
