CC is, basically, the arrangements the boys have been playing live
lately.  IMO, it's worth it for the studio cut of Buck's Boogie, and
tSoL is as heavy as it should have been the first time around.

My biggest complaint is the vocals; there are times when I wonder if
Eric was even listening to the tracks from the rest of the band.
<shrug> I'm less forgiving of rhythm glitches than I am of missed
notes.

       It's not what people call you - but what you answer to -
       that matters.                           - Barry Saunders
