Wow, I didn't know about the re-recording of side 1 tracks angle, I guess I just assumed they remixed the side 1 tracks, shame Wounded Bird coulnd't come up with the original side one recordings as bonus tracks, but I know they've been generally staying away from bonus tracks on their reissues so I guess I shouldn't expect it from them. Well, maybe one day Rhino Handmade...
