I recently put all their tracks on my iPod and it still sounds awesome! I saw them each time they came to Philly on the Electrafixion tour and they were awesome. It's time to incorporate these songs into the Bunnymen tour- and B-sides like "Rollarcoaster!" Or my other great Bunnymen idea- re-record the grey album the way they wanted it to sound. "Lips" sounds so much better in the "Old Grey Whistle Test" version anyway! I would LOVE to hear it that way live!!!! Am I the only one who thinks this way? The Wabbitt Stew sessions- live!
