Yeah, good album that one.  Though to my ears the CD lacks a little power
compared to the vinyl. A good reason for remastering all the Charisma stuff,
I think, with maybe, bonus tracks? (On all our wish lists for 2003, I
guess...).  Though I did hear tell that the master of Honky Dorky had gone
missing - shame, someone should put that back into Reefer Madness like it
was originally.

Does anyone else have that Virgin 'Spirit Of The Age' CD compilation? And
have they noticed how the Hawklords tracks sound slightly bright and hissy
compared to the rest?  Almost like the engineer forgot to switch on the
noise reduction.

Just Curious!

Happy festivities, whoever you support.
