A lot of it is mixes and various elements of final tracks -- Garcia breaks each entry down thoroughly in the liners.

Claaaaaaaasssssssssic (imagine this word said with tons of fuzz and overdrive and reverb and flanger and the like)

I wish I knew what the mad vocal sample at the start of Clipped is all about, I've been wondering that for 30+ years.

That Cuckoo tour was a hell of a thing to experience.

xp the absolute zenith of Curve for me (shout out to โTurkey Crossingโ) - I remember Cherry coming out and thinking, well, this hits every mark dead-on.

also Cuckoo is their best album by an order of magnitude

To each his own. Never much cared for Cuckoo despite some good moments. But then again all their albums were flawed. Pubic Fruit all the way

well yeah the EPs were the real high point.

Curve is one of those bands where I kinda liked them, picked up Cuckoo at a record store on a whim, it became one of my favorite albums of all time, and I never really bothered finding any of their other music. Now, my curiosity is piqued and I'm finally listening to the E.P.s that comprised Pubic Fruit after all these years. Might be doing some Bandcamping today.

Physical box set coming in February:
Unreadable Communication: Anxious Recordings 1991-1993
The two albums, four EPs, some remixes and some live stuff. Does not include Peel Sessions, which are supposed to be very good.
I'm not a fan, but if you want remastered CDs, here you go.

so, remember this from a while back :
"but more to the point .. did all cd copies of the album come with doubled up inner sleeves as a spin off from the album name .. or is that just me being a little too nerdy ?

well, a twitter account posted this weekend re the album, so i asked the question re the doubling up.
and look what happened :
๐พ๐๐๐๐ liked your replyquestion : was i only the person who bought this on cd to find the inner booklet doubled up ? i assumed it was a play on the album name ..
!!!
