HW: Reissues

[Rich W]

We just got our copies of 25 Years/Astounding Sounds/Electric Tepee in 
the mail yesterday.

I'm liking 'The Only Ones (Acoustic Demo)' a great deal, and '25 Years 
(Take One)' is good, and 'Assassination' ...Great Stuff.

A great disc.

I always did like 'Electric Tepee' as an album, great sound on the new 
remaster, maybe except for 'Going to Hawaii' which didn't sound right, 
bit distorted, maybe I need to listen to listen to my original disc and 
compare the two.

Sound is fine on Astounding as well, though I still don't like this 
album (but lets not reopen that thread ;-)

So what do people think of the proposed tracklisting for Quark? and PXR5

Interesting to see a Hawkwind version of 'We Like to Be Frightened', 
though I'm not enamoured of the version on 'Hype'
