It's the version that was in the very heavily aired music video and during their commercial peak you were just as likely to hear this version on the radio as you were the album version. It's pretty that likely that the "alternate" version is the one most fans heard first during the period when they gained the most new fans.

The Dave A version is vastly superior to the Ten album version. It's not a remix, it's a different recording.

where is that available?

I believe you'll find everythign you need to know right here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Even_Flow

Except the 'zoo' video. Leak that shit please.

The single version is equally as important to people my age because it was the version that aired on MTV over and over and over again. It was also the version on the CD single which a lot of people bought to get "Dirty Frank". Calling it an "alternate version", is quite frankly incorrect. It's the "hit single version" and the version that the band prefers! And to people who didn't buy "Ten", but bought singles and watched MTV, it was the "correct" version.

yes drop their biggest hit and exchange it for a shitty ass ballad from a shitty ass album

Last Kiss was their biggest hit because it was able to be played on radio stations of all formats - that doesn't really ring true of the whopping majority of the rest of their catalog. and also, it kinda sucked imo.

I'd agree about LBC, but Riot Act wasn't a shitty album. it was weaker than earlier efforts but still fairly admirable.

It's kind of a weird tracklisting overall.

If I were to design a one-disc "greatest hits"-type compilation from the same era, it would look something like this:

1. Alive (promo single mix)
2. Even Flow (single mix)
3. Jeremy (single mix)
4. Black (O'Brien remix)
5. Yellow Ledbetter
6. Daughter
7. Go
8. Spin the Black Circle
9. Corduroy
10. Better Man
11. Who You Are
12. Hail, Hail
13. Given to Fly
14. Do the Evolution
15. Last Kiss
16. Nothing As It Seems
17. Grievance
18. I Am Mine

G*d damn it

BUMP. Proper thread.

Hot for substitute teacher.

Cheers. Stip, haven't you got anything better to do?

gotta admit, i always knew that the video version of Even Flow was slightly different, but didn't know it was Dave A. Also didn't ever know they had such a hard time recording it and feel like they never got it

From memory one of the ATS pods interviewed Krusen and he spoke about it. Was a great interview regardless.
