Los Ovnis - Hippies (1968)

Hay algunos grupos mexicanos, que algunas personas califican como "de culto" y "clásicos"; según yo, esto se debe a una cuestión más comercial o de falsa nostalgia, que a verdaderamente grupos con calidad superior a sus contemporáneos y que injustamente fueron ignorados, hasta que un listillo extranjero los descubre y los edita en su disquera. Son grandiosos, no me cabe duda, entretenidos, con muy buenos discos; pero, de eso a que algunos los pongan por las nubes y digan que es la obra maestra que se anticipó a no se cuanta cosa, es otra cosa muy diferente. Ejemplos: Medusa, Nahuatl, los Ovnis o recientemente muchos grupos de punk ochentero. Si, rifan, mucho; sin embargo, sus melodías y letras no distan mucho de algunos grupos de su época. El problema para evaluar con objetividad a este tipo de grupos, es que es imposible hacerse un lavado de cerebro y escuchar su música ahora, por primera vez sin saber nada.

Los Ovnis de 1968 son sensacionales, su tercer disco "Hippies" puede considerarse un paso adelante, después de publicar 2 discos, donde las versiones abundaban y no siempre con buen tino. Así que "Hippies" tiene grandes canciones con sobredosis de fuzz, órgano y gritos reverberantes, que a las buenas conciencias sesenteras han de haber asustado, de estas destaco "Ya se", "Infinito", "Mugre" o "Fe" que trae a la mente a los Electric Prunes. En el lado negativo están otros como "Cuando era niño" y "Mi protesta", en las que se notan más ganas que otra cosa; esto, le resta puntos definitivos al disco.

Aun así, sería mejor que le des una escuchada, te formes una opinión y me insultes en los comentarios.

Los Pulpos - Los Pulpos (1970)

*Portadas tomadas del blog de Rene

Una de las bandas sesenteras más recordadas por el público nostálgico menos rockero, se llama Los Pulpos. La razón: “Lo que te queda”, un baladon donde el liderazgo está a cargo de un órgano y una letra que los Temerarios hubieran matado por escribir. Cuando hablo de los Temerarios no me refiero a la banda liderada por Chico Che, sino, a la banda del mismo nombre liderada por dos hermanos infumables, que torturaron a toda una generación de mexicanos, con sus insufribles y simplonas baladas.

Posiblemente esta canción sea uno de esos placeres culpables que están más ligados a la memoria de cierta época o quizá a fuerza de escucharla tanto, me gusto.

Como sea, es súper disfrutable este disco. Inmediatez y sencillez es lo que los define. Si buscan bandas atascadas o más "avandarescas" busquen por otro lado.  Aquí solo habrá psicodelia-beat suave y fresa, un agradable disco con el cual mover las patitas. Igual podrán oír las primeras canciones de música grupera.

"Mendocino" un cover de Sir Douglas Quintet, es sensacional y divertida, la traducción no es literal, pero pal caso hablan de lo mismo. "Luz de Amor" es puro garage bublegum, nada de preocupaciones, solo buenas vibras transmite esta tema. "24 Horas de soledad" es buena, pero prefiere la de los Classics IV. En "Cariño Fresa" el espíritu festivo está presente más que nunca, no sé si esta se trate de una versión o una original, pero se oye muy "rollingstoniana". "Compasión por el diablo" versión de Simpathy for the Devil es olvidable, está dividida en 2 partes. Sigue "Música Fresa" con su inolvidable estribillo: "Quiero más mas mas/ música fresa" es desesperantemente contagioso. "Yo en mi casa y ella en el bar " es una extraña canción con una estructura sencilla y adhesiva, de un grupo argentino llamado, Los Náufragos, la versión es una copia descarada; es exactamente igual. Finaliza la mentada “Lo que te queda” antecedente directo de lo que sería la banda que formarían años después los integrantes de los Pulpos: Yndio (sucks)

Ya sabemos que hay algunas personas que denotan y linchan públicamente a esta clase de grupos. Rockeros de manual en su mayoría. No sé qué buscarían, pero si alguno de ustedes le gustaría enterarse de una parte en la historia del rock mexicano, de manera festiva y refrescante, esta es una muy buena opción.

 Factory fue un grupo Freakbeat de adolescentes afincados en Inglaterra que grabaron  solo dos sencillos. Este "Path Through the Forest" es la recopilación que ademas de los dos sencillos tiene alguna canción extra. La cancion que da titulo al disco es un clasico que viene en el Nuggets II: Original Artyfacts from the British Empire and Beyond y de ahí su fama. Un tema Psych construido con algunos trucos de estudio que es un trallazo. Pero lo describe mucho mejor Dave Furgess :

"Path Through the Forest" es un viaje misterioso y embriagador hacia a un infierno psicodélico. La canción realmente transporta al oyente a una pesadilla, en un espacio multicolor y te deja allí para encontrar tu propio camino... es imposible de olvidar una vez que lo hayas escuchado".

Recopilación muy buena acerca de la escena Beat Danesa o de Copenhague específicamente. De ningún grupo tenia información antes de que comprara el disco y de ninguno tengo algún dato después de que lo tengo, lo que si puedo decir es que después de que lo escuches no quedaras defraudado y si quedas yo pensaría que has perdido totalmente el juicio.

Mi favorita es "I Don´t Want Nobody" de los Stonagers, una canción perfecta de principio a fin.

Este post esta dedicado a Johnny Lebrel del programa patillas y a lo loco y que puedo escuchar en http://conpatillasyaloloco.blogspot.com/ y que gracias a el he descubierto muchos grupos beat y garage-

The Outsiders - Strange Things Are Happening

The Outsiders - Strange Things Are Happening

Mp3 @ 192 kbps - 141 MB

This compilation of all the Dutch Outsiders Material is great. You Mistreat me is early beat punk at its best while Im Only Trying is great early psychedelia. The aren't any weak tunes on this comp and if you like the rolling stones, pretty things, or Love this is highly recommended. The 1960's owned rock music and unknown bands like this prove that distinction. Modern Rock bands today can hardly hold a candle to this and lack the melodic invention of the Outsiders. Lying All The Time is classic folk rock easily the equal of anything off the byrds first album. Also recommend is C.Q. by the outsiders from 1968 and their first album which contains some of these songs. C.Q. is one of the finest psychedelic albums ever!

The Outsiders - C.Q. Sessions (1968)

The Outsiders - C.Q. Sessions (1968)

Mp3 @ 192 kbps - 141 MB

In the summer of 1967 the OUTSIDERS accomplished the zenith of their success, "Summer is here" reached the TOP 10 and the song easily matched the spirit of the Summer Of Love. Their debut album - released in March - sold extremely well.
Around April RELAX announced the new single "Filthy rich / Won't you listen". But the sound was too raunchy so "Summer is here" became the logic alternative. The first sign of their declining popularity became visible when the members of the OUTSIDERS became more and more uncomfortable with the solo-records WALLY TAX released.
The follow-ups to "Summer is here" faired poor in the charts. "I've been loving you so long" and "Don't you worry about me" only reached the lower parts of the Dutch Top 40. In order to stop the way down a few changes were considered. First longtime member Tom Krabbendam was fired from the band and replaced by Frank Beek. For some weeks Ronnie Splinter was replaced bt Tony Leroy (former member of ZZ & THE MASKERS) and the OUTSIDERS did silly publicity stunts: Wally cut his 48 cm long hair to 24 cm on Dutch television and when the nation was celebrating Sinterklaas the OUTSIDERS dressed up in medieval page costumes. 1968 saw quite some changes indeed. Polydor became their new record company. "Cup of hot coffee" disorientated longtime fans, while "I don't care" was a change to the better known musical direction.
But despite much television promotion the new singles sold very poor, just like Wally's two records. The golden days of the OUTSIDERS, like many other Dutch Beat acts seemed over. Q65, LES BAROQUES and The MOTIONS stopped having big hits after the summer of 1967. The Musical taste of the record buyers was changing. Underground, R&B, Soul and Soft Pop (Cats, Tee Set and Buffoons) became very popular.
The OUTSIDERS started to experiment in different directions. Slowly they replaced old standards for new compositions during live concerts, much to the discomfort of their loyal fans. During the spring and summer of 1968 the band recorded at GTB Studios, The Hague.
October 25th saw the release of their second album "CQ" (phonetically pronounced "Seek You"), an expression used by radio amateurs who are painstakingly scanning airwaves for new stations. When they contact a station their return the compliment for informing them about the range of their signal and a QSL card is their reward. The simple QSL card design is reflected by the cover of "CQ", the same primitive lines confirm QSL design. Metaphorically it can also be a "signal" from The OUTSIDERS to get in touch again with the fans from their haydays.
The same day the band performed "CQ" live on stage of FANTASIO in Amsterdam for a crowd of 825 people. Wally at the time claimed his musical influence from US undeground bands, but for all of you familiar with the PRETTY THINGS album "SF SORROW" you can exactly hear how many ideas were "borrowed". Not only the compositions, but technical tricks and production owe a lot to "SF SORROW". Not criticism at all but a compliment to the British band that the OUTSIDERS got compared with in 1965.
Oddly enough the new single "Do you feel allright?" did not appear on "CQ". An incredible composition that had deserved to be a Top 10 hit, but instead failed to sell. Heavy television promotion in Holland (Twien) and Germany (two times on a show called BAFF) did not help at all. "CQ" sold bad, despite critical acclaim. In a way it was the beginning of the end for the OUTSIDERS.
1969 saw little activity on the outside, but Wally and Ron kept on experimenting. They composed the soundtrack for a VPRO TV play and performed in FANTASIO with Dutch fluteplayer Frans Bruggen in June. These two nights were a success, but Wally was thinking in a different direction. The OUTSIDERS ceased to exist, TAX FREE started their activities in the autumn of 1969, but that's quite a different story. For now sit back and enjoy the second chapter of the career of one of Hollands most talented bands.

The Outsiders - Fantasio (1968 )

The Outsiders - Fantasio (1968)

Mp3 @ 192 kbps - 46 MB

The Outsiders by Richard Mason
(September 1998)

If you ever see a CD with a big CQ on the front, buy it. Don't worry who it's by or what it costs or anything like that for the moment, buy it. Take it home and stick it in your player, then set the program so you miss out the first two tracks. Never mind why, just do it anyway. Make sure that all breakable objects are firmly secured and turn the volume up regardless of what it was to start with. You are now about to experience one of the great popular music recordings of our time, and almost certainly the most unjustly overlooked. You wouldn't want that on your conscience, would you?
The Outsiders were formed in Amsterdam in the early 1960's. The line-up initially was Vladimir 'Wally' Tax, who sang and played rhythm guitar, lead guitarist Ronald Splinter, bassist Appie Rammers and drummer Leendert "Buzz" Busch. Maybe you've heard of them, maybe not. Chances are if you have it was something along the lines of 'they were to the Pretty Things what the Pretty Things were to the Rolling Stones'. Chances are you heard wrong. This was an extraordinary, incomparable group who've remained unduly neglected for too long. Why? The usual reasons - not commercial enough, going against the grain of the prevailing musical climate, not prepared to compromise - but there was one other serious problem. They were from Holland, and as such didn't exist at the time. Of course, if they'd been prepared to push their luck with a few gimmicks, the Dutch angle might have told in their favour. But no. They didn't even have the decency to record a single cover version in their entire career, during which they recorded about 50 songs. Talk about asking for trouble.

By the time they recorded their first single "You Mistreat Me"/" Sun's Going Down" on the Dutch label Musiek Expres in 1965 the above line-up had added Tom Krabbendam on second guitar (though according to Wally Tax he was "a lousy musician", a fact confirmed by Ronald Splinter, who added that it didn't really matter as Tom's amp was always turned right down!) and had acquired a reputation as a live act that was second to none, not even the UK and US acts who were foolish enough to let The Outsiders support them.

Their following was as committed and wild as their music and stage act, with the result that the band and their fans were banned from several Dutch venues. Still incredibly young (Rammers was the eldest at 19, with Tax, Splinter and Krabbendam being only 17) they released their second 45 on Musiek Expres the following year and then signed to Relax, a subsidiary of a Dutch classical label. Around the same time in Amsterdam they had supported (and, according to Tax, blew off stage) the Rolling Stones, which lifted their national profile to the extent that "Lying All The Time", their first 45 on Relax, reached #45 in the Dutch charts, not bad for a Dutch act apparently! To give the lie to the 'Dutch Pretty Things' tag utterly, the single featured Splinter's exquisite folk-rock 12-string, a strange, almost atonal bassline from Rammers and the by now trademark impassioned yet low-key (i.e. sung rather than screamed) vocal from Tax. Sure, they were influenced by groups like the Stones and the Pretties, though Tax has pointed out that as he and Phil May were friends the influencing may also have been in the other direction, but also by Love, the Byrds, Tim Hardin, Buddy Holly (very evident in the sound of some of the early Tax/Splinter songwriting collaborations) and European songwriters like Jacques Brel and Charles Aznavour. "Lying All The Time" was the first in a line of classic singles on Relax that included "Touch", "Keep On Trying" and "Monkey On Your Back", a series of 45s that compares more than favourably with the output of any contemporary UK or US outfit, passionate, raw songs that sounded like no-one else.

1967 saw the release of four more singles and an eponymous debut LP, side 1 of which was recorded live and shows the real power and passion of The Outsiders as a superb live band with a wide range of dynamics and an ability to whip up audience that was second to none. "Story 16", which opens the live side, utilises one chord, howling atonal harp, glissando bass and tempo changes that defy description. The way in which the group works together, the unification of purpose and intent, is comparable to that of The Velvet Underground or The Magic Band. Yep, that good. The songs follow thick and fast, punctuated by rowdy audience contributions (legend has it that Tax's father, who invariably attended gigs, would get the audience going on his own) and with no let up of intensity and power. The sound is deliciously raw and primitive, yet this isn't solely down to the less-than-pristine sound quality; the approach of the musicians has a unique, unschooled edge that you'll hardly find in any other bands of the period. The song that closes the live side, "Afraid Of The Dark", begins as a psychotic ballad, the creepy tremolo guitar and dark vocal reminiscent both of more scary rockabilly and that genre's post-punk adherents such as The Cramps and The Misfits, then suddenly without warning becomes a depth charge of a song that goes off in the speakers and careers to its conclusion like a stolen car pursued by the law. A breathtaking end to a peerless side of music.

The other side is all studio, from more breakneck flurries such as "Don't You Cry" and "If You Don't Treat Me Right" to more restrained but no less passionate workouts like "I Would Love You" and "Teach Me To Forget You"; all in all, a fantastic debut LP. Probably no more than twenty people outside Holland bought it at the time. The group's sound was continuously evolving, making use like so many of their contemporaries of additional instrumentation such as Tax's flute and harmonica, zither, balalaika and the occasional horn arrangements.

Obviously, there was pressure to sell records and sound commercial; the group' manager even went as far as to overdub a horn section onto the first single to appear in 1968, "Strange Things Are Happening", much to the band's chagrin. Rifts occurred and first Tom Krabbendam and then Appie Rammers left the group, the latter being replaced by Frank Beek. Relax folded and the group's management sold them to Polydor, on whom the next 45 was released. "I Don't Care"/"You Remind Me" showed a new maturity, with influences from the West coast showing, yet it was still a typical Outsiders venture, albeit with a more overtly 'commercial' sound than anything on the debut LP (a second LP consisting of previously released material from singles and the first LP had been given a budget-price release in 1967 as a gesture to the group's fans). The next and as it turned out final LP was to be a different matter altogether.

CQ (an expression used by amateur radio enthusiasts) featured not only the new line-up, with Beek contributing organ and piano as well as bass and all group members doubling on percussion and backing vocals, but also, according to the sleeve credits, new songwriting combinations, with both Beek and Busch making substantial contributions (though both Tax and Splinter claim that they wrote at least half the LP). Regardless of who actually wrote what, the resultant LP stands up as a staggering achievement. Recorded on an eight-track and produced by the group, the stylistic range of the material, the rich variety and maturity of the lyrics and the sheer power and vitality of the music makes this one of the finest LP's of its era or any other. What the group were not to know at the time was that Polydor already had the Golden Earrings, Holland's most successful group, on its books and were determined to concentrate their promotional efforts on them. They conspicuously failed to get behind the Outsiders to the extent that only something in the region of 500 copies of CQ were released at the time and subsequently the album died a grisly commercial death. But unless you've heard this record you have no real idea of the magnitude of the crime.

Side one, track one; "Misfit". A three-dimensional bass sound not unlike John Cale's on "White Light/White Heat" hits you in the solar plexus, guitar and drums follow up with a devastating counter-punch and straightway you're confronted by one of the heaviest tracks ever, at least a year before the Stooges and aeons away from, shall we say, punk rock as most of us know it. The lyrics are priceless: "We all know just what you are & how come you are what you are & why it just ain't possible to turn you on/We all know just what you want & how come you want what you want & why you're not responsible for what you've done/You thought you could make it; come & join our dance/You thought you could fake it - you didn't stand a chance/You talk too loud when you're out in the crowd - MIS-FIT!" Delivered in what can only be described as a controlled snarl which makes you wonder just how familiar Chris Bailey of The Saints was with the Outsiders, it's worth remembering that despite the extent to which English is spoken in the Netherlands, they weren't even composed in Wally Tax's native language. Makes you wonder how Bob Dylan or Lou Reed or any of those other 'rock poets' would have fared if they'd been required by commercial stipulations to have written all their words in Dutch! The lyrical standard is similarly high throughout the LP; Tax had a rare gift for an original storyline and a telling turn of phrase that invariably compliments the music on this record. "Misfit" contains a stinging guitar solo, thunderous drumming and a final flourish on the bass before "Zsarrahh" changes the mood completely, as balalaika, recorder and 12-string guitars ring out underneath strange treated voices mouthing venomous lyrics about a former lover.

The title track is something else altogether. Distorted guitar reminiscent of nothing so much as Keith Levene's work on "Theme" on the first Public Image Ltd. LP ushers in an ominous bassline with radio static and the sound of the ocean superimposed amid a murk of a mix from which you can just about make it Tax muttering about contact having been lost and imploring over and over "Are you receiving me?" as the maelstrom builds under a sickly fuzz guitar until the inevitable explosion and we're into "Daddy Died On Saturday", by utter contrast a slick chord progression over which Tax wryly relates the tale of a young man whose prospective father-in-law refuses to give his blessing to his daughter's proposed union with such a lowlife...so they poison him. The line "This was more than the boy could take/If he (the father) won't bend - he's gotta break" illustrates admirably Tax's ability to write a superbly colourful yet concise lyric. Beek's rousing piano, Busch's typically muscular drumming and a brief harp solo give the track the musical colouring the words deserve, fitting yet unobtrusive.

The brief "It Seems Like Nothing's Gonna Come My Way Today" follows, a basic blues structure with a mere snippet of a lyric, a beautifully restrained guitar solo and gentle acoustic backing that provides a lull in the pace of the side, albeit one that is all too soon shattered. Four chords each about the size of Steven Spielberg's bank account provide the intro to "Doctor", a nightmare tale of human experimentation (Vic Frankenstein meets Tim Leary?) which without warning changes from a riff-powered rocker with odd vocals (as on "Zsarrahh") into a cosmic free-form fucker of drifting organ, echoed bongoes, roaring feedback guitar, ghostly flute and other effects before reverting to original type. "I'm getting scared/I don't think this is funny any more", opines Tax, and he may well have a point. Not that it gets any less strange; "The Man On The Dune" hurtles at a furious pace with lightning riffing through a song reminiscent in some ways of earlier Outsiders' material with a mostly indecipherable lyric of which all that can be defined is "the man sits on the dune with a pipe in his hand". Then you get a jew's harp bouncing back and forth across the stereo mix and "The Bear", which tells of marital discord over East European surf music, honestly, and lasts less than two minutes.

Happyville begins with impassioned harp and then the drums and guitar thunder in (one aspect of this record that constantly implants itself in the listener's mind is how fresh and, yes, contemporary it still sounds; the guitar and drums on this track are an admirable example of this) as Tax relates in his inimitable narrative style a story of the Dutch sex industry, with some of his finest and funniest lyrics: "I don't mind your enthusiasm/I don't mind your wild orgasm/I don't mind that we're not at home/I don't mind that we're not alone/But I can't understand why you're selling tickets to those nasty guys who don't wear ties/Please be kind and hand me my things and/Call my stand-in, call my stand-in/I won't be back again" . Busch's drum fills on this track and Splinter's careering solo make this an outstanding track lyrically and musically, fresh, witty and fiery.

Then yet again there's a change of pace and mood with the exquisite ballad "You're Everything On Earth", featuring a 12-string to break any heart, sympathetic bongoes and organ backing and another beautifully understated and sensitive vocal performance from Tax. The 12-string is also to the fore on "Wish You Were Here With Me Today", but here strident drums and bass force along Byrd-like harmonies in a performance reminiscent of some of the later singles. "I Love You #2" adds vibes to the list of instrumentation and gives Tax another chance to show his voice is as suited to a ballad as it is to rock'n'roll.

The depth and range of the LP's material thus far has been remarkable, yet in some ways the most spectacular has been saved 'til last. "Prisonsong" begins with Tax telling of his impending release from jail over gentle guitar which swells and feeds back ominously as his narrative becomes more and more impassioned (shades almost of Patti Smith on "Land") until he finds himself in the outside world once more. Traffic sounds mask a furious tempo shift as he tries to take in all the changes since he was inside, then thinks instead of getting back to his girl who he's been thinking of constantly. Almost inevitably, he finds her in bed with someone else and kills them both, then panics and runs, the assumption being straight back to jail in the end. Though it may sound trite just to provide a synopsis of the storyline like this, there is genuine pathos and feeling in this song; the delivery is never less than impassioned and the music is superbly controlled yet wild and emotive rock'n'roll.

Sadly, the Outsiders were only to record one other track before their demise, a superb 45 called "Do You Feel Alright" based on a friend of Tax who terrorized his rich father for money! Once more, the lyrics are superb, including a bizarre reference to Roger Moore, and the music is its equal, the feature here being Splinter's exemplary lead guitar.

By autumn of 1969, Ronnie Splinter had had enough and quit music altogether for a while. The band disintegrated, with Tax and Busch forming Tax Free. Over the years, Wally Tax continued to write and perform in both solo and group formats, but with little or no recognition outside his native land. Long since deleted, original copies of Outsiders' records began to change hands for what might conveniently be described as Monopoly money prices. Only in recent years has it been possible to acquire CD reissues of the aforementioned records. The CD of the first LP features six tracks from the Relax 45s, whereas the CQ CD opens with the "I Don't Care"/"You Remind Me" 45 and finishes with "Do You Feel Alright" and two Tax Free tracks. Also, a double CD set entitled CQ Sessions was released which included three previously unreleased tracks from the CQ era plus 26 alternate takes or demo versions, some without vocals, thus giving a new slant to the tracks in that instrumental versions of tracks like "The Bear" and "Doctor" develop a life of their own. Also included are the first two singles on Musiek Expres, so despite a lack of attention chronology-wise the vast majority of the Outsiders' catalogue is at least in theory currently available through the Dutch label Pseudonym.

How many of you actually look at the section in PSF where all us 'rock journo types' tell you what are, no honestly, the 10 best records ever so you can all go out and buy them? If you're one of them, you might have noticed that my 10 changes from time to time. You know how it is. One thing doesn't change though; I really don't think I could ever come up with 10 LP's that I get more out of than CQ. I really can't emphasise enough that all this sub-Pretty Things business is so much shite. Nor is it even vaguely near the truth that they were the top of the 2nd division garage heap or some other condescending sort of 'compliment'. To say they never got the credit they so richly deserved is a bit like saying Charlie Parker used to play the alto saxophone a bit. Fact of the matter is, those responsible for the documentation of rock musical history as we know it OWE people like The Outsiders and always will. Do yourself a favour; seek out and obtain, by fair means or foul, the aforementioned reissues of their records. If you find that you regret it, don't come bleating to me about how I sold you short or whatever. I shall wash my hands of you utterly. On that you can rely. The Outsiders were one of the all-time greats of rock music and anyone who says different had better be outside in the car park in 10 minutes. I'll be waiting.

Their final LP (now available on CD) is one of the finer unsung psychedelic records of the late '60s. Heavy echoes of Syd Barrett-era Pink Floyd, Hendrix, and psychedelic-era Pretty Things, with adroit shifts from crunching rock and soft, almost folky passages to spacy phase shift bits and just plain dementia. The album has an ominous and creepy, but rocking, ambience that still cuts deep. The 2001 CD reissue on Pseudonym adds five bonus tracks from late-'60s singles, though a couple of these are just alternate mono or stereo versions.

Their Their super-raw debut album, a few songs of which were recorded live. Some of this is too melodically primitive and clumsy to survive the ages, but tracks like "Filthy Rich," "Won't You Listen," and "If You Don't Treat Me Right" are comparable to little else of the era with their savage, Pretty Things-on-speed mood and hyper-fast tempos. The CD reissue adds several bonus tracks. "
