I'll offer the item and there will be a chain of interested parties that add

Willie the Pimp (HR) always is captivating, but I also thnk the same thing about most live MOI stuff '68-'69, etc.) that I'm lucky to listen to.

This List isn't dead, it just smells funny... Your question as it wasn't, kinda puts you in a category. There seem to be 2 different campswith regard to the early recordings and their subsequent remixes (and both can be quite rabid): those who prefer the former, and those who prefer the latter.

I'm surprised these haven't been re-mixed by Joe Travers and Dweezil. I like the later 1984 mix of We're Only in it for the Money with Chad Wackerman on drums and Arthur Barrow on bass because the drums and bass are more prominent in the mix and other aspects of the songs seem to be remixed as well, enhancing the songs. -Michael Smith
