Diana Green says of the reissue: <blockquote> ...slight redesign to the cover, inner sleeve of gatefold is the Underwood 1st album painting, which is also reprinted on the underside of the front /back cover. The booklet has a very small point reprinting of the David Armas essay from the original issue, with some of the same photos and the bad line art of the giant head.The CD itself is printed to look like a 45. The copyright lists it as a Purple Pyramid release, but there is no record number to be found aside from the UPC number. Inexplicably, they've also included a four-up mini poster of the Giant for a Day cover. The sound is a bit sharper than the Red Steel issue. The highs are sharper, and the more brash numbers are tolerable. But the dropouts on the lows are still severe. The guitar parts- heck, all of Memories of Old Days remains almost completely inaudible. Overall, this remains an album for completists, or any REALLY ambitious remixers out there! </blockquote> | Diana Green says of the reissue: <blockquote> ...slight redesign to the cover, inner sleeve of gatefold is the Underwood 1st album painting, which is also reprinted on the underside of the front /back cover.
