Reviews

I bought this CD when first released, and was somewhat disappointed in the mix and the fact some songs were omitted.
I wrote to the ICE newsletter (at the time, the definitive resource for CD collecting) and they published my letter, along with a reply from Mike Watt, basically agreeing with me about the release, and saying how much he missed D. Boon.
(I was not aware it was restored to the original mix later on.)

Didn't get my hands on this oddity until a few years ago. At first I wasn't thrilled with the remix (Minutemen on reverb?!?) but it makes for an interesting side trip after you've heard the album several hundred times. Kinda like taking a new route to the barber you've been seeing for the last 35 years.
