You enter O-MIND and every variation made by each of the five members grabs you while you navigate this degenerate state. It's the REAL rock-jazz fusion, that thing.

Well, I really love SYR2 where are those really different versions of two ATL songs. BUT, in the seventies mostly bands have made full arrangements before they go into studios. When I have listened the outtakes of my Fun House 2lp, I really havenīt find much of differences. Of course intro in t.v. Eye is really great (is it Iggy?). Also I can hear Mackay sax is greater in outakes of 1970 & Fun House. Also Lost in the future is really great, hard to understand why it isnīt in fun house or Raw Power. But all the other outakes are weaker in my 2lp. Really hard to understand why I need to hear the whole sessions? I have never been interested those "all they recorded"-boxes, even I really love Dylan & the Band Basement Tapes, that original 2lp has always been enough to me.
