May 26, 2022 I saw an audio cassette of the TES reissue being sold in 2003, it had 21 songs and as a bonus track it had Lose Yourself. It's strange that they didn't include this song in the reissue of the album now. I think this song should have been part of this album.
May 26, 2022 yeah I agree and like I said I think not puting out mmlp expanded 2 years ago and having trouble with the Bass Brothers led to how things turned out now Unreleased MMLP song instead of TES song(s) cause Em and Jeff did most of the production including Stimulate (which was already out)
May 26, 2022 I'm glad we got Square Dance Instrumental though plus the new song and all instrumentals on 1 disc. This is worth a buy.
May 26, 2022 Yeah, for that era. Hearing that song back then would have been a dud. I don’t like The Kids either, doesn’t suit MMLP so was good choice he left both of the songs from MMLP. Humour on them songs is zany, cartoonish stories which is what SSLP is. Humour from MMLP comes from real experiences and blurring the lines of life situations and what was going around him. But hearing any material from decades ago is always cool, so was glad to hear it.
May 26, 2022 Yeah this and the kids gotta be in the middle of sslp and MMLP if Jimmy Brian and mike are tes it's for sure him trying to recapture magic. This expanded was very nice imo miles better than sslp we got better songs not on streaming this time and all around a lot more bonus material plus a much better alternate cover art instead of the lazy sslp one the new art will look very nice as a vinyl.
May 26, 2022 Yeah, some of the instrumentals for TES were already out, and with this they released a couple more, but it makes you wonder why they didn't just include all the instrumentals from the album on the Expanded Edition while they were at it
May 26, 2022 I think that this song "Jimmy, Brian and Mike" should have been part of the SSLP re-release, because the vibe of this song is the same as in the SSLP album. he even talks about Bill Clinton, who was a big part of the SSLP. I have no idea why they included this song in the TES re-release, this song doesn't sound as good here as if we heard it after listening to the original SSLP.
May 26, 2022 It's a shame because SSLP expanded could've been LEGENDARY even if it included songs we already from soundtracks/leaks. Imagine if it had mastered Till h--- Freezes Over, Our House, and Demon Inside then throw in Murder Murder the re recorded Low Down and Dirty h--- Bound Any Man 3hree6ix5ive etc so many ways that could've gone yet this gave us exactly what the og deluxe SSLP gave us.
May 26, 2022 the new releases are: Jimmy, Brian, and Mike and then the live performances & instrumentals, yeh?
May 26, 2022 live performances were released in 2002 on the TES Bonus DVD. there is only one new song, it's Jimmy, Brian and Mike.
