I'm mixed a bit on the bonus tracks that you often find on re-issue Cd's. Generally you get 4 or so extras, maybe a remix of one of the songs, a live version or 2 of something, something unreleased...
I've found some really, really great stuff. There is a unreleased early mix of (Don't Fear) The Reaper on a re-released Agents Of Fortune. There is a live version of "Watching The Detectives" on one of the Elvis Costello's re-releases that is outstanding.
On the other hand some of it isn't really that good and it kind of spoils the listening of the CD a bit. Often I load up 5 discs into the player and a couple might have bonus material. In the flow of things I wish the bonus tracks weren't there.
Catch 22 -while I sometimes appriciate the extra's some times they are not very good and disrupt the flow of the CD and the flow of one CD to the next.
Thoughts?
Also, found any bonus track nuggets?
