I feel that everything that I can say about the original album has already been said in my previous review of it. But I feel I should also review this version because, just for once, it's worth forking out for the deluxe edition.
The second disc of this package could be sold as an excellent 'b-sides and rarities' collection on its own. The quality is very high throughout, and far from tarnishing the original album, you find yourself adding 'Jamie' and 'Suzanne' to the tracklisting. 'Mykel And Carli' is almost as good, 'My Evalyne' is interesting if nothing else, but best of all are the Kitchen Tape demos.
These live recordings of songs which ended up on the album are fascinating insights into the band as a raw garage group, as well as what the songs used to be like before they were put down on the album.
This additional deluxe disc is worth every extra penny you spend on it. Every song here is worth having and listening to; remember them this way, rather than for their 21st Century exploits.
