Yes that article in question was from John Holstrom's original Punk
Magazine. JH now edits High Times. And yes, we were upset about the
recording conditions for most of that album. If you listen carefully you
can hear feedback from the monitors on some songs but in retrospect that
remains my favorite BOC album. All live, high energy, even Eric's guitar
playing was OK. It wasn't the final result that we minded as much as what
we had to endure to make it. Some great tracks were ruined because of the
monitor mixer.
