Way too much cock rock on Facelift: Put You Down, I Know Somethin (bout you) and Real Thing to close the album end it with a particularly egregious diarrhea splatter.

I'll give you the first two but Real Thing is good especially live. 10 killer songs out of 12 is a pretty good ratio.

I mean, I don't like Sea of Sorrow or Love Hate Love either but I didn't mention those because I can at least see how someone else might be into them.

Good call, I think both are pretty basic but sound good. They don't disrupt the album.

Thanks! This was definitely worth listening. I had not heard any of these bands before. There were couple really nice versions - my favorite was probably Dam That River by Low Flying Hawks. I wish the other bands had taken same kind of creative chances with their interpretations instead of following the original arrangement so loyally.

Does AiC have a lot of demos/ outtakes out there?

Most of their stuff is on the Music Bank box they released a long time ago. Fuck, i have it. Its wonderful. Its on Spotify too.

Outtakes? Nothing i saw.

I have that, as well.

Y’know, we Pearl Jam fans have been really spoiled as far as that type thing goes.

Totally. And Aic never really gave away anything. Not even these days. They dont have b sides.

Makes you wonder how many more Fear the Voices type tracks they have stashed.

yeah, thats a cool one.
Im guessing they dont have that much. And they like to keep their unused riffs of songs and re worked them with time.

I came across a “Dirtumentary” on them on YouTube yesterday. I’m only about 30 minutes into it. Pretty cool stuff.

Looks like Facelift is getting a 30th anniversary reissue on vinyl (remastered audio). Christ, 30 years, I remember watching Man In A Box over and over on MTV. Purchased.

I did NOT see that one, thanks! Buying that one as well. Am I Inside is one of my all time fav AIC tunes

Full disclosure I am not a vinyl guy and maybe that’s the answer.

That said, I don’t really understand the appeal of all this reissue stuff. Are there “new” unreleased songs? If not aren’t you just buying something you already have?

I think there’s a certain charm to any given album and the way it sounds as originally recorded using 19XX era technology (assuming it’s a decent recording).

The facelift box set is 150 bucks and it has nothing in it.

[VinylGuy]

I already have SAP on vinyl with Jar Of Flies. The Facelift reissue...yeah, i love the fact that is going to be available on vinyl again, but there isnt new music or demos or nothing...the Box Set is basically the album with some books and other stuff.
