I'm interested to hear the new remaster of the album, however I think the best improvement could be made by taking off the horrible sounding electronic drums and getting Sean back in to re-record on a real kit. To me, that would make the album even better. I'll definitely be getting the new 20th anniversary edition. Besides the much-needed remaster it has extra tracks and artwork, videos and the like. It's out next Monday (5th) in the UK I think.
Oh, and surely 'Motorcycle Emptiness' is the most Steinmanesque, even if for the title alone! Come to think of it, 'Slash 'N Burn', 'Crucifix Kiss', ''Love's Sweet Exile', 'Condemned To Rock 'N Roll', these could easily also be Steinman titles :-D
