IH reissue



OK, I'm a little late on the take-up, I know, but I got the Its Hard
reissue recently and here are my thoughts on it:

o The bass seems more lively than the original; it seems that many of
  John's little bass riffs in various songs were omitted from the
  original pressing.  I like the little riffs.
o in my mind, the two songs that really shine from the remixing/mastering
  are "Eminence Front" (baby let's fuck?) and "Cry If You Want".  I
  remember listening to this album when it first came out and thinking
  "shit!  they cut off the guitar jam on the end of CIYW just when it
  was getting good!"  Now I see that they have included a much longer
  segment of the jam :)
o I like the live versions, but kinda wish they had picked live versions
  from some other show.  Didn't these versions appear on the 2 disc Join
  Together?  Roger's voice sounded gravelly in CIYW.  I guess nothing
  short of having the band sing live in your living room is truly going
  to satisfy the fans on this list :)
