  1. i saw them live shortly after the release. directly before that, someone had sent me a bootleg, so i knew what to expect: really poor vocals from Wayne and a bad mix. i knew it was all about the show experience, which was fantastic. that having been said, i don't think i need to go see them live again.

  2. >At War With Mystics gets a bad rap because it is not as good as those two,

     

    that's not why i give it a bad rap. i hear songs like "The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song" and "Free Radicals" and just want to give up on the whole enterprise.

  3. i don't really care for any of A.M. and there are definitely a few i'd cut from Being There as well, so i don't have this problem. plus, i like "Glad It's Over," i just really wish it had been on the SBS import bonus disc or the other 2-song bonus disc...

  4. i particularly like the version of "Born In Time" on the first disc. i've listened to it at least 25 times. it's really nothing short of stunning. it's a spliced version of a take that has circulated on bootlegs for years and i always knew that the bootleg version from the Oh Mercy sessions was better, but hearing it in official context has done it for me.

  5. and who knows, there are still conflicting reports as to whether the Performance series will be included in Archives, V. 1. some reports say yes, but the article you just posted said this third one will not be. other reports said that they would not be included, but the box would have places for the discs to slip in, etc.

  6. LouieB, Analogman - help me out here, why are the last two releases uninteresting?

     

    i'd believe you if you said you didn't buy Fillmore because it wasn't a complete show and easily could have been. that's a valid excuse as the bootlegs are better. but, Massey Hall is fantastic. it had been widely bootlegged before, but if you already own the bootleg and love it, honestly, shouldn't you buy the official release? or is it he crappy disc-scratching packaging? just help me to understand please.
