Byrds - Preflyte (Sundazed)

I can't believe I haven't asked this question:

Is there any reason to own the single-disc reissue on Sundazed? Original mixes? The Poptones disc sucked, so...

I *thought* it was the original mixes, but I haven't bothered. Other than some missing session banter, I thought the 2 CD set was pretty much definitive.

Everything was remixed on the two-disc Sundazed set, right?

I'm certainly not buying the single disc, but I'm wondering whether it's even worth the effort to borrow and rip. Who's it suppoesd to appeal to, really? (Well, actually, I guess it depends on whether "In the Beginning" is still in print)

Other than The Only Girl I Adore, which was mono, yes.
