From an 2011 interview to Randy Holden by Klemen Breznikar ( www.psychedelicbabymag.com )

" Was Population II ever officially released?

I never knew either, until 1991, but it wasn’t Hobbit. Apparently Hobbit sold the masters some time after the bottom fell out of my personal economy, and the wind of change became a hurricane, blowing me far away.

Do you still own the masters? You released it on CD?

The masters seem to have disappeared. They have been rigorously hunted down, and everyone who ever touched them has been found, and talked with, and no one knows what happened to them. I did a remaster on the best gear available, and people I trust, who did a decent job of it. That’s the best it sounded yet, but that appears to be where it’s landed. "
