        Naw, they haven't *remixed* it, just remastered it.  The performance
is the same as always--loads of fuzz and mud :)  But the transfer to
disc has been done properly so you can hear it.

        Put it this way:  it sounds *much* closer to they way it did
in the studio when it was being recorded than it did on the One Way CD,
and probably even than the original vinyl on a nice LP-player.  In other
words, it sounds the way it _should_!

Cheers,
Carl
