I have the tracks ripped to my laptop, which I'm on riiight now. The main offending differences for me are the guitar in Rock and roll Dreams, anda few other thigns. Admittedly, that may be getting a little subjective. What ISN'T subjective is that the bagpipes from everything louder are on the front of Good Girls, and they but the bagpipes right up against the saxa-mo-phone intro. Why they'd do that I have no idea. I can't remember my other specific gripes, cause I really don't listen to them that often!! (They're all round "louder" tho, that's for sure).

Truth be told, I'd rather just email the track to you, cause I hate file-hosting servers. :o) Mind you, I shouldn't say that, cause what with the sheer generosity here of late, I've got some lovely things courtesy of file hosting servers, but you know what I mean.
