I had a good look for this for you and I can't find it anywhere. There is a user with the files in Soulseek, but the files don't repair using pyrescene's retag tool. I think you might have a long wait to find this. There are P2P FLAC releases easily available on Soulseek and NZBKing of the 2002 remaster.

thank you very much for the effort. Let see if this one comes up in the next days/weeks. If not, I'll be good to request the Burning_Spear-Hail_H.I.M.-1995-RAC release

Okay. I found the FLAC release of the 2002 remaster, and then I examined the srs files from srrDB.

The srs files told me that album was encoded by JAH with LAME 3.92.
I took a look at another scene release by JAH from a similar time and checked the encoding flags with eyeD3 and this told me:

Code: Select all

Encoding Flags      : --nspsytune --nogap
I downloaded and compiled this version of lame 3.92 on Linux and set about encoding the flac files to mp3.

Code: Select all

wget https://master.dl.sourceforge.net/project/lame/lame/3.92/lame-3.92.tar.gz
tar -xf ./lame-3.92.tar.gz

cd lame-3.92/
./configure
make -j`nproc`

cd /path/to/flac/album/
flac -d *.flac

cd -

./frontend/lame --verbose --cbr -b 192 --nspsytune --nogap /path/to/flac/album/*.wav --nogapout /path/to/flac/album/

du --bytes /path/to/flac/album/01\ Hail\ H.I.M..mp3
6138985	/path/to/flac/album/01\ Hail\ H.I.M..mp3
As you can see, I came extremely close to matching the filesize of '01-burning_spear-hail_him-jah.mp3' which should be '6,140,992' bytes. However, it is still not the right size and it is not possible to restore the tags with retag.py.

That's enough fucking around for me.
