Metamorphosis

Did anybody buy this title fairly recently? I'm wondering if the multitude of glitches inherent in this CD were ever fixed...

Doubtful.

Still don't own it.

Had it for awhile. Sucked ASS. Later on, I found a site somewhere that analyzed it track for track since ASSCO never put in track or liner notes.

The best material (which aren't lost classics but are enjoyable) was booted on the Trident Mixes bootleg. Of the early stuff, there's an interesting but still vastly inferior alternate of Heart of Stone, and a Chess studios cut that's okay. The rest sucks.

Yeah, that's where I got it too. I still haven't bothered to listen to it yet, though.

I quite like Some Things Just Stick In Your Mind. Although I listen via the pre-overdubbed version...

I just bought it but I haven't listened to it yet. I basically bought it to get I Don't Know Why and Memo From Turner. Is there a better sounding I Don't Know Why out there?

Not sure...never really ABed 'em. That said, the current Metamorphosis disc, if it hasn't been fixed, has lots of digital clicking in some tracks.
