I love the way the drums are treated on 'The Empty World' ... that cavernous bottom end mixed with the relatively tighter sounding snare.

also isn't one of the songs pitched at slightly the wrong speed and it was sorted out on the reissue?

Yeah they pitched down "Bananafishbones" a quarter step or a half step for the reissue. Adds to the wooziness, reduces the cartoon factor.
I love the live recordings around this time, Concert is the only worthwhile official live album for me (although Trilogy is pretty good too). The Concert version of "One Hundred Years" absolutely smokes the studio version.
