If your previous album was a slow-burning success story, it can be hard to be expected to hit the ground running on the follow-up. Fortunately, the Kaiser Chiefs have done just that on the fantastically titled Yours Truly, Angry Mob. Like Employment, their debut and this album's predecessor, Yours Truly... is full of radio-friendly, hook-ridden tunes that mask cunningly subversive lyrics. The Kaiser Chiefs are very much a Britpop band, which is probably why "Highroyds" opening couplet--"I remember nights out when we were young/They weren't very good, they were rubbish"--sounds like something Jarvis Cocker would sing while being backed by the boys from Blur. And it's this lyrical sentiment that's carried throughout the album, much of which is satire wrapped up in potential singles. Best of all, and a perfect example of this, is "The Angry Mob," sure to be shouted along to by exactly the people it's targeting. It's the rare band that can mock and judge its audience and still be loved by them, but that's exactly what the Kaiser Chiefs have done on Yours Truly, Angry Mob. --Ted Kord

Album Description

Yours Truly, Angry Mob is the Kaiser Chiefs's brilliant follow-up to their debut, Employment.

Kaiser Chiefs were one the great musical success stories of 2005. Fast forward to 2007 and Kaiser Chiefs (Ricky Wilson - lead vocals), Andrew "Whitey" White (guitar), Simon Rix (bass), Nick "Peanut" Baines (keyboards) and Nick Hodgson (drums and vocals) are about to unveil their much anticipated second album.

Yours Truly, Angry Mob wields its musical might from the start in the shape of "Ruby" - an infectious single to rival anything the band have done before. "Angry Mob", a favorite from the band's European festival appearances last year is destined to be a universal fan favorite. "Heat Dies Down" will surely have 'em pogoing in the aisles en masse, while the stunning "Everything Is Average Nowadays" is perhaps the thread linking Yours Truly... with its predecessor. Yours Truly, Angry Mob, as one band member has been heard to utter, "is an album full of big choruses and even bigger guitars". Maybe so. It's also the work of a band hitting their creative stride. All hail the Chiefs!

5 out of 5 stars Amazing album!.......2007-06-12

I love alternative music. Unfortunately, I have not liked alot of what I have heard lately. That was until I heard the song Ruby on the radio. I was blown away by the lyrics and the great sound of this band. I have been buying alot of classic rock lately. This is the first current alternative cd I have bought in long time. I was a little concerned because people had said that Ruby was the only good song on the album. In my opinion, the rest of the album is just as good as Ruby. I can't stop listening to it. Five stars all the way!

3 out of 5 stars Not A Lot.......2007-05-29

Every time I think of this band, I remember them as the Kaiser "Chefs" rather than the Kaiser "Chiefs"; and I keep trying to associate the band with food. As much as this is one of my brain quirks, it's indicative that the band is almost memorable. There's enough here that shows promise to make you want to tune in, but there's not enough to glue you to them. The opening song "Ruby" is immediately attractive, but then wore a bit thin. I more like the second track "The Angry Mob" that boasts punk anthem joyfulness, "You'll raise a glass until you raise a fist or two & get a shopping basket wrapped round your head." "Heat Dies Down" sounds quite similar to the Rolling Stones' "Paint It Black." It repeats in my song rotation with its humor making me smile, "So I tried that night to do all the things I thought you'd like but that just made it worse & I impressed you not -- well not a lot." A couple other tracks like "Learnt My Lesson Well" & "Retirement" are pretty good. Some of the tracks like "Highroyds" go by before I remember to listen. So in the end, this is a rather inconsistent set with a few great tracks. It's enough for now. Enjoy!

3 out of 5 stars listen to it first.......2007-05-24

Ruby is definitely one of my favorite songs of all time, but i listened to the album at a friends house, and the rest of the songs just didnt do the same thing for me. kaiser chiefs just probably arent the right style of music for me. so i just suggest to anyone who heard Ruby and loved it, listen to the whole album before you buy it.

5 out of 5 stars A Fun Album.......2007-05-13

Nearly every song on here is a pleasure. Nothing too deep, just good indie rock with good clean (sonically, that is) vocals. There's some very well produced nuances I found after listening with a good pair of headphones. I especially like the way they used synths on Ruby (one of my favorite songs on here). They are reminiscent of XTC in that quirky way while still rockin' out. I haven't really been moved by some of the slower tempo songs, but it's probably not what I'm into right now. It's a good all-around album and I just picked up an older one a few days ago, so I can't comment on it just yet.

5 out of 5 stars Rip-roaring fun!!.......2007-04-27

Our favourite rabble rousing lot, Kaiser Chiefs, return with their sophomore disc, "Yours truly, angry mob", which has already topped the UK album charts.

Opening the disc is the uncharacteristic mellow and melodic straight ahead love song "Ruby", the lead off single, which gave them their first UK #1. Following is "The angry mob" whose sing-a-long chorus comes after a tempo shift towards the end of the track.

"Heat dies down" is a catchy, sunny and upbeat song with a terrific guitar riff, sounding not unlike something Franz Ferdinand would do. In a similar vein is the choppy "Learnt my lesson well" with sunny sounding harmonies.

Returning to the Kaiser Chiefs we all know and love, cheeky and rebellious sounding ("Everyday I love you less & less" & "I predict a riot" anyone?) are "Highroyds", "Thank you very much", the buddy song "My kind of guy", the punk feel of "Everything is average nowadays" (the album's second single), the defiant "I can do it without you", the latter displaying their acerbic wit to the full.

Slowing things down, we get the tender acoustic "Love's not a competition (but I'm winning)", the brief piano ballad "Boxing champ", and "Try your best".

Closing is the delightful Smiths-like "Retirement", (I want to get by without the man on my back, they sing) a song we all wish we could sing. Ah!!

Rip-roaring fun!!

Book Description

"Kirtan is the calling, the crying, the reaching across infinite space—and digging into the heart's deepest well—to touch and be touched by the Divine Presence," teaches world music pioneer Jai Uttal. On Kirtan! The Art and Practice of Ecstatic Chant, Jai guides listeners through the practice of Kirtan—singing the many names of God and Goddess—an essential part of Bhakti yoga, or the yoga of devotion. This sacred music form is for all people; there are no experts, nor beginners, and the practice itself is the teacher, guiding us to ourselves. Listeners join Jai Uttal to explore: the power of ancient Sanskrit syllables in chant to invoke the Divine, how to open the voice and learn to love the sound that comes from our bodies, more than two hours of music recorded by Jai Uttal to commune with the Divine through sacred chant, and the path of Bhakti and Kirtan, the journey of surrender, and much more.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars "A Joyful Noise".......2007-05-16

When I heard an interview on NPR with this artist,Jai Uttal,and music from his CD I couldn't get it out of my mind. It is "a joyful noise" that lifts the spirit and energizes. His very personal explanation of Kirtan on Track 2 gives one an understanding of the spiritual basis of the music and even if it is not a path that you might follow you can't help but be swept up in the chanting. I play it in the car on days when I feel stressed and it removes all that chatter in my head and helps me arrive at my destination uplifted and in the present. His interpretation of the ancient chants using non traditional instruments and renditions is appealing and engaging. P.S.It is a 2 disc set so you can have one at home and one in the car!

3 out of 5 stars Not As Ecstatic As I Like To Be.......2007-04-22

Although a double CD set, both disks pose a problem to this reviewer's taste. Each contains a rather lengthy exposition by the artist on the nature of Bhakti (Devotional) Yoga sandwiched in the program. Jai Uttal has a very pleasant speaking voice & the material was helpful, even inspiring--but do you really want to hear it all over again everytime you play either discs? I know I don't. The musical material is engaging, but not particularly special. It is authentic mantra, but without the technical brilliance of many such CDs (see links below). I don't regret buying it--again, BUT it won't become a treasured favorite. I don't think it would turn-on people who weren't mantra fanatics like me or a real fan of the artist--or a devotee of Kirtan.

PS. The cover artwork is great!

5 out of 5 stars Devotional music at its sweetest.......2007-03-15

This 2-CD set is one of the best introductions to contemporary kirtan I've come across (and I own many kirtan CDs). Aside from the wonderful spoken section, where Jai Uttal chats informally about what kirtan is, the selection of songs is truly heartwarming. I love both CDs, but find I listen over and over again particularly to the second one for its variety of moods and styles. Jai's voice really cuts deep and brings out the intensity and authenticity of his own devotion to the path of music and the heart.

In addition, the musicianship of everyone featured on this set is superb and adds so much to the listening experience. It is hard not to sing along and feel the blessings flow, even if you are not a singer...and that is exactly the point.

5 out of 5 stars Kirtan: The Art and Practice of Ecstatic Chant by jai Uttal.......2007-03-09

Wonderful kirtan, by a great artist.

5 out of 5 stars How can I express my joy?.......2007-03-06

I was a big fan of Krishna Das and I still am. A couple of weeks ago, for the first time in my life, I heard Jai Uttal's 'Radha Rani ki Jai, Maha Rani ki Jai' - Track # 4 on Disc 2. Like all good music does to my soul, I was so enchanted that I played the same track again and again till I lost count. I wasted no time in getting both the discs and my favorites are as follows:
Disc 1: Track # 3 'Radha Govinda'
Disc 2: Track # 1 'Durga Pahimam', Track # 3 'Jaya Radha', Track # 4 'Radha Rani'
Originally coming from India and being a big proponent of 'Bhakthi Yoga' (Path of devotion and Divine love for God), I can say from the depths of my heart that Jai Uttal sings with such soulful melody and love, it takes my breath away every single time I listen to the tracks mentioned above. It surprises me so much that while I cannot listen to certain types of music even once leave alone repeating my listening experience, the kind of music that Jai Uttal, Krishna Das and others produce, I can listen for a lifetime and experience that joy again and again.

...come ulisse quando incontrò le sirene, fatevi legare stretti alla sedia! non riuscireste altrimenti a stare fermi durante l'ascolto di questo cd, che mette addosso voglia di saltare ballare e scuotere la testa, inseguiti da chitarre e bassi ossessionanti. Una seconda prova migliore senza dubbio, più continua e matura, della prima.

4 out of 5 stars very pleasantly surprised.......2007-07-11

I took a risk and bought this album because of the song "Ruby". The entire album turned out to be very good, and I'm quite happy with it. Good catchy songs throughout. Do many people today buy entire albums, instead of just downloading one or two songs from a band? Probably not, and it's a shame. I recommend the album.

2 out of 5 stars radio friendly.......2007-07-08

It is exactly the words radio friendly in amazon's little review that make me flinch. KS have turned into a pop band and they play songs that are nice, but just a little heavier than your average boyband. Too much Kinks, too much other (better) Britpop bands and even Spinal Tap.

Over the top, just not very good.

5 out of 5 stars loutish pop (but in a very good way).......2007-05-14

My first listen was on an iPod, my second-tenth on an excellent car stereo. Do yourself a favor and pump this album out loud. The production screams for speakers.

4 out of 5 stars Worth a buy.......2007-05-12

Solid CD from this UK band, but Ruby Ruby, the first single, is still my favorite.

3 out of 5 stars not thrilled with the album.......2007-01-03

My husband and I are huge Savage Garden fans. We were both disappointed with this album. It seems like towards the end of the CD they were just trying to fill in space. It is ashame because there were so many other wonderful songs they created that did not appear on the album. I would reccomend buying the original CD's separately, get more for your money that way.

4 out of 5 stars Pretty good, but not a Best of.......2006-12-06

I have to agree that this could have been better due to certain track choices. And instead of having the dvd they could have input another cd and had a complete library of Savage Garden songs including all the B-sides the two Darren Hayes songs on this cd and the never released in America song "Mine" which I have to say is one of their best.

All in all I don't regret getting it, but it could have better.

4 out of 5 stars Kenny Mac, Mad Soundz (Australia).......2006-06-19

after 6 years apart, the best of savage garden cd has finally been released & i am happy to have a copy of my own. the album definetly does not disappoint except songs such as "gunning down romance", "two beds & a coffee machine", "i don't know you anymore", "carry on dancing", "universe" and "mine" which were great songs could have been on there. the two songs by darren hayes were awesome and better than ever. my fav. song would have to be "i knew i loved you". Fantastic album overall

5 out of 5 stars kenjiehp says:Fantastic!.......2006-05-16

This is a fantastic collection of SG's past albums. I highly recommend it for the fans and those who are simply curious. A must have!

4 out of 5 stars If only it had Tears of Pearls!!!.......2006-03-16

Savage Garden is, without a doubt, a band that left behind music that has lived on though they split up. And this is one of the first times I find such a complete compilation for any artist... though that's easy to accomplish when you only have two discs under your sleeve.

Nevertheless, they were both two great discs and the best of them has been brought over to these new album, spotless... the only thing that holds me back from giving this a 5 rating, is the fact that it misses my favorite Savage Garden song: Tears of Pearls, from the first record...

Still, it's forgivable: even though the song was good, it wasn't that much of a hit as other that are included...

A must have if you don't have the originals and are interested in Savage Garden music.

Since it contains six tunes that Richie wrote and performed as lead singer of the Commodores, the title for this collection may be technically a little misleading. That said, those who appreciate Richie's instantly recognizable vocal style are unlikely to complain about the inclusion of such pop standards as "Three Times a Lady," "Still," and "Easy." Maybe it's the passage of time, but Richie's solo work sounds more emotionally satisfying than the hits he had with the group: "Hello" is still eminently soulful and "Penny Lover" has a warm and cozy feel. "Endless Love," Richie's memorable duet with Diana Ross, shows that both singers can truly deliver powerhouse vocal performances, while the oft-overlooked Commodores hit "Sweet Love" is a welcome addition to this collection. Richie may not have been in favor chart-wise for a while, but this package is a reminder of the contribution he's made as a contemporary writer of classic love songs. --David Nathan

No one comes close when it comes to writing love songs like Lionel. He's so gifted. The best song (one of the best - there are so many), is Still. It's so beautiful, you could almost cry. What a talent.

5 out of 5 stars Relationship Music.......2005-08-20

What could you say about Lionel Richie when he started his career with The Commodores and later solo. All fourteen songs were written by him which were all chart toppers of its time. Let alone his music crossed genres over to country from pop / R&B tunes. Only those in relationships that's worth fighting for will find this LP of all love songs pleasurable. This has feelings and depths with the arrangements and vocal range of Lionel.

No purist, MacMaster employs an aggressive guitar and rhythm section, along with mini-Moog and electric pipes on "Matt & Nat's," while the jazzy intro to the "Flea as a Bird" medley seems to channel the style of Stephane Grappelli. Guest vocalist Michael McDonald gives the traditional "Danny Boy" a soulful, somber twist, and "Farewell to Peter" offers an instrumental elegy to Peter Jennings, MacMaster's late friend and countryman. Yet uptempo instrumentals dominate, as the opening "Volcanic Jig" builds to an eruption worthy of its title, "David's Jig" employs her step dancing as percussion, and her flamboyant virtuosity through much of the music finds her rarely settling for one note where she can squeeze in three or four. --Don McLeese

5 out of 5 stars Outstanding fiddle player!.......2007-05-13

I happen to see this performer live this year and even though she was quite pregnant, her performance was terrific as is her cd. Her talent reflects in her ability to keep you interested in every song she creates. The musicians that accompany Natalie only enhance her performance and make this cd even better. If you enjoy true fiddle playing, I recommend this cd.

5 out of 5 stars Natalie does it all.......2007-05-12

I have seen Natalie McMaster several times and have some of her previous recordings. This one is somewhat of a departure from her usual fiddle music, delving more into a mood from classical to klezmer. She still entertains marvelously and shows her versality with the music she has created here. It is a mix of warmth, joy and sadness from a lady who has an unmatched personality and talent. I find myself playing this again and again. The only down side is Michael McDonald's "Danny Boy".

4 out of 5 stars A rewarding performer.......2007-03-09

Natalie McMaster is, amazingly, the real thing. She has huge talent, without the ego to match. She is such a great performer for her live audiences, talking, dancing, and of course fiddling. She gives credit to her family, her band, and her country. She's a charmer, and this CD has all of her charm and talent.

5 out of 5 stars Sincerely - "yours Truly".......2007-02-23

Thoroughly enjoyable and such a virtuoso. I play it as I drift off to sleep. And I love the one about Peter Jennings - such a kind man - and we were all privileged to have him come into our home nightly for many years.






5 out of 5 stars what a fiddle.......2007-02-20

How far can Natalie go? This time she pushes her limits far beyond. A mixture in instrumentation (not only the traditional ones, but also modern ones), plenty of jazzy moments and quiet traditional pieces. The driving force is amazing. She propels her band up to the maximum and seems to take much pleasure in it. I would like to give five stars and can not wait any longer to see this fiddle lady live in concert. Hopefully she will make some stops in central europe in the future.

5 out of 5 stars Instruments of the Orchestra - Great Reference Material!.......2007-04-04

This set lends itself to greatly enhancing one's knowledge of the orchestra, instruments in it, and their usage. I am a huge music buff, and I still picked up a great deal I previously did not know. I highly recommend this for all who wish to understand the origin of music, as well as the processes that are employed to create music!

5 out of 5 stars Beginner or Expert.......2007-03-12

This CD is excellent for the beginner or expert! To be able to haear the instrumets separately and then together really provides a good education. and/or refresher. The book thaty comes with the CD is alomost worth the price by itself!

5 out of 5 stars Very Informative and Enjoyable.......2006-11-20

Whether you're a music novice or pro, "The instruments of the Orchestra" is a very worthwhile purchase. The 7 CDs, with a total of 8 hours, are expertly narrated by Jeremy Siepmann. He's a great speaker, very much like the late Leonard Bernstein was. Mr. Siepmann takes you on an unforgetable musical journey covering the origins and use of the various orchestral instruments throughout musical history. The balance between his narration and a wealth of musical examples, which range from snippets to entire movements, is superb. The comprehensive enclosed booklet is excellent and faithfully follows the 7 CDs in content. Even with my 40+ years of music training I still learned new things from this wonderful collection. Considering the excellence of the content, and a cost that translates to about $5 per disc, this collection is a great value. Grab it, you won't regret that you did. Five solid stars!

3 out of 5 stars Frank's view.......2006-08-19

This boxed set of CD's with booklet achieved all I had hoped that it would. There are good samples of individual instruments and well done commentary on each. The only drawback was that some of the samples were too brief and could have been longer, hoiwever I guess this fits in with time constraints of the medium. It has given me a lot of clues as to future purchases of CD's for listening to individual instruments. Altogeth a satisfactory purchase and a welcome addition to my collection.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Intro for Those Not Familiar with the Orchestra.......2003-11-08

I've listened to classical music for years and am interested in composition. I bought this CD set to learn how an orchestra and its instruments work. I thought the CDs would be a nice but boring lecture. They aren't! Not only are they FUN but they are informative as well. I learned a huge amount from each CD and couldn't wait to listen to the next one.

The narrator and writer is a great speaker and holds your attention well. He is definitely knowledgeable. He provides musical examples for each point he makes, so you get to "hear" what he just talked about. I'd say the CDs are about 65% music and 35% narration. You'll learn about the range of instruments, some history, different ways to play them, how they sound, and how they are used in the orchestra. This CD set was a great learning experience and is sold at such a low price!

I recommend this CD for those who want to learn about classical music and those who know about it but are interested in learning more about the inner workings of an orchestra. You'll learn much useful information. For instance, the Rite of Spring (with that eerie start) is written for bassoon! I never knew a bassoon could sound like that but now I do.

The one complaint I have is the last CD. This deals with the orchestra. I wanted more of a tour of how the orchestra has been used through history up to the present. Instead, it was a tour of how different groups of instruments sound. I thought it could have been better. The other 6 CDs are excellent.

Part of the Sound Healing series from Soundings of the Planet, Tao of Healing teams flautist Dean Evenson with Li Xiangting, a professor from the Central Conservatory of Music in Beijing and an authority on the guqin, an ancient seven-string zither from China. Their collaboration, with barely perceptible support from keyboards, acoustic guitar (Scott Huckabay) and percussion, is a hushed, serene, and inviting experience--as soft as the faintest breeze felt on a peaceful, sun-warmed afternoon. Evenson's meditative flute, which rarely strays from the instrument's comfortable low and middle ranges, is the disc's prevailing voice, with Xiangting's guqin discreetly supplying tasteful, angular accents to complement the Western vibe of Evenson's reflective improvisations. At times, in fact, this calming, slow-go disc (60 minutes in length) briefly conveys traces of jazzlike harmonics (largely Huckabay's contribution) that flavors the blissful proceedings with a nice touch of musicality. A slight soundalike quality might be detected in some tracks, but this is a minor quibble. This is Evenson's first recording where natural sounds are not included, though the liner notes assert the mix makes use of "earth resonance frequency" (7.8 hertz), all to enhance a listener's attainment of an alpha state. Actually, Evenson, Xiangting, and company do a commendable job of that on their own. A strong choice for supplementing massage or meditation. --Terry Wood

5 out of 5 stars Good for pets as well as people.......2007-03-03

I purchased this cd for myself, but noticed my Basenji seemed to relax a little whenever I put the music on. I often play it for her in repeat mode when I am going to be out. She is definitely "zen'd out" by the time I return!

I can best describe the music by saying that there are no loud instruments or uptempo arrangements to distract from the relaxation experience. The melody is soothing and uncomplicated, so it works well in many settings where a quiet mood is preferable (like doggie bath day). So do something nice for your pet...and yourself...and check out this cd. Alternately, I would recommend Dean Evenson's equally pleasant "Forest Rain" cd.

5 out of 5 stars nice.......2007-01-20

Students in my tai chi exercise classes for seniors prefer this--
over several similar CDs.

Maybe its the 7.8 hertz Earth Resonance Frequency in the mix?

Can be used also when doing the 24 Form Yang style--

Although "O'Holy Night" works wonders during the Christmas season
(5 and 1/2 minutes almost fits the Form perfectly.)

5 out of 5 stars Use for healing.......2007-01-16

I just purchased this CD for my realative diagnoised with Lukiema, I hope it helps him, He is very stressed and can not keep a clear head to sleep.

4 out of 5 stars Tao of Healing.......2005-10-19

Excellent for the massage clinic. Arrived a little earlier than expected in perfect condition.

5 out of 5 stars Tai Chi Music.......2005-08-27

We use this music during the Short Form of Tai Chi. It enhances the connection to the earth.

5 out of 5 stars Totally Menzel.......2007-07-07

The first time I heard this CD I liked it. The second time I listened I really started to get into it and to enjoy the gift that Idina Menzel wants to share. A powerful voice with vunerable lyrics. It's a great combination!!!

5 out of 5 stars Beyond Wonderful.......2007-04-02

Why is Idina Menzel's name not splashed on the covers of magazines? She's got the looks, she's got the connections(hello, ultra famous husband?) and she's got the talent-ten times more than any simpleton on the music scene right now.
A fan to the core, I admire Idina from way back in the day-Rent OBC-to the more recent projects-Wicked, Rent the movie, etc etc. and I can say that this is by far the best exhibition of her talent. Why is this not an international bestseller? This is truly beyond me.
Menzel has an incredible voice, and amazing song writing skills. The songs she sings are so full of that very Idina-y personality that you just can't get anywhere else. Who else could pull off a "Think Too Much"....genius. I've never thought about Guys in Tuxedos before listening to this song, but now that I think about it, they are kind of decieving. She has that blues-y charm and deep voice that despite what you may say would knock Shoshana Bean on her kiester and blows everyone and anyone out of the park. I highly, highly reccomend this CD for anyone who likes pop,rock,blues,jazz, broadway, or just plain talent.

5 out of 5 stars IDINA MENZEL IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2007-02-10

This is one HECK of a first album! The songs are awesome to sing and dance to. The song that definately deserves the title of "Best Song" is a combo of "Planet Z," "Minuet," and the title song, "Still I Can't Be Still". This, and any of Idina's work, is worth getting, just to hear that VOICE!

4 out of 5 stars Awsome.......2007-01-30

If you love Idina Menzel in either of her major broadway roles, you will love this CD. The lyrics seem a little random, but I get the feeling, that is Idina for you. Having written all the lyrics herself, she preforms them with a passion and formiliarity, not all artist acheive. I would and have recomended this Cd to anyone who has at least heard of Idina. I love it.

4 out of 5 stars ALMOST THERE IDINA!.......2007-01-21

I FEEL THAT THIS CD IS VERY GOOD! SOME OF THE SONGS ARE VERY EARLY 70'S SOUNDING. THERE ARE A COUPLE OF SONGS THAT IDINA SINGS THAT REALLY SHOW OFF HER VOICE!! THOSE ARE AWSOME!! IT'S A GOOD STARTER ALBUM!! I WISH IT HAD MORE SOUL SINGING SONGS, BUT VERY GOOD!

I finally got this CD in today to find out that the track "If You're Gonna Do Me Wrong (Do It Right)" Is not there anymore on the newest pressings of this CD. Come one, if your going to throw something way, why not some of the interviews, The remix, or "Turn, Turn, Turn".
