I thought this was the Griffin boxed set version.  I assume that this
version of Images is the same as or similar to the version on the
1990 US video.  Not bad, but the lack of Simon's violin makes it not
as good as the studio version.

California Brainstorm is definitely worth it, IMO.  Out Of The Shadows/
/Snake Dance/Night Of The Hawks is the high point, but it also includes
an excellent version of Reefer Madness with Bridget on vocals.  The
versions of TV Suicide and Back In The Box are better than the studio
versions, IMO, although some (many?) people might get pissed off with
Harvey's burblings.  There's a killer riff in the middle of Back In The
Box, with Bridget chanting "Feed Your Brain" over it for 20 seconds or so.

Dave.
