I haven't heard the new one, but considering that Doug Yule's hyperactive brother was on drums (Mo was on maternity leave), Sterling Morrison sounds like he's phoning it in, and Jim Carroll (who recorded the show) was drunkenly rambling during the music on the old one, I can't see how a sonically cleaned-up version would improve the performances.
Police procedure has changed since I was little.

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I thought Bridget Whats-her-face recorded it.
I really like Lou's singing on that album. He sounds so sad. But I have not listened to it in ages as I don't own it on CD.

I thought I remembered that Jim Carroll had recorded it, but I could be wrong. I listened to it just a few months back, though, and then put it away for another couple of years.

I have not listened to that since my turntable broke. Years ago. I don't even remember it well enough to know if I liked it or not.
In better news my husband just acquired an advance copy of the new Paul Westerberg album which I will get to hear tonight. I am excited.

Looks like there's a chance we'll get Marianne Faithful to blurb the book.

Pretty freakin' cool. Also, she's in Los Angeles right now, so keep your eyes open at the coffee shop.
