And, shock of shocks, they're doing another half-assed job. Why not include ALL of the tracks they recorded for the BBC, a la Bauhaus's _Swing the Heartache_? There will obviously be two minutes of space left over that could've been filled by "Tame", recorded for John Peel on Oct 18, '88 (a bootleg of which I have for sale, oh happy coincidence). Sure, it might've taken two discs to fit all of the songs on there (and even that is debatable)...but the only people that will be buying this release are the ones that wouldn't hesitate to pay a few bucks extra for a second disc, anyway. I mean, if you're going to bother doing something like this, you might as well do it *right* and make it comprehensive. Oh well...let the inevitable barrage of double-CD-plus-7"-singles and other limited-edition bullshit begin!
