Hmm -- remastered? I'll have to see if I can find that. Fantastic album ("Bitch" and "Sway" are among my favorite Stones songs).

NB: If you like Iggy Pop, beware the somewhat recently Bowie re-mastered version of Raw Power. He absolutely murdered that album.

Part of the amazing energy in that whole album due to the discordances, distortion, and odd blending of instruments -- and Bowie took all of that out.

He even removed the xylophone from "Penetration", which was very unusual, distinctive, and created a neat contrast to what is otherwise a very gritty and passionate song.

But, Bowie is immortal, and a demigod of some sort (and possibly the supreme ruler of the Guild of Calamitous Intent), so I suppose I have to just let it go...

Ah, the B-52's... what a cool, crazy band.

If you haven't heard it before, find Peter Griffin's cover of Rock Lobster -- hilarious

I think there's a variation on that of his called "Iraq Lobster" too

Although Peter's all-time best song has gotta be "Cowboy Butt-Sex"
