He destroyed the masters with a razor blade, and then he binned them.
Perfectionists can be a pain.
Bootleggers have also done a better job archiving stuff than the pros. I think a fan of Bob Dylan went through his trash to retrieve demos and masters and used heroin needles. I also think a lot of Beatles tapes were found in a skip, which someone from the offices retrieved.
