jmtd → music → The Cure - Dots and Dashes

This is a hypothetical, web-era bootleg of stuff by the Cure. Inspired by the frankly insane 11-CD bootleg "B Side and Rarities (Made in Ukraine)", I was a little put off by how mixed up the tracks were timeline-wise, thought some things were missing, didn't think that Smith's solo guest vocal ventures should be included, and didn't see the point of duplicating tracks from "Join The Dots". So I started chopping and changing. This is a work in progress.
