BOC

[gary shindler]

I thought the CD, Koch's reissue, had a label advertising an extra track, 
remember it made a big deal about Howard Stern being on the album. Still have 
the LP, I think.

Club Ninja has be "re-issued" a few times, but I believe there were no extras 
(other than maybe some enhanced liner notes).

Cultosaurus WAS remastered in Europe, back before Sony started remastering the 
first 3 discs, and it contains no bonus tracks (but does restore the downbeat of 
"Deadline", which got cut on the original CD version of Cultosaurus - if memory 
serves)
