Tracklisting........
Moved into the first post. -- Linda
It looks like it's just a compilation.
I'm going to pass on this until seeing other people's reviews.....and would probably only get if any mixes are significantly different or there's unreleased live versions...........(if 200 Years Old continues beyong the fadeout, I'm buying).
Kind of surprised given the theme that TMSIN and HPHATGH aren't on here.

I am hoping PW deluxe is the piece he played at some appearance long ago (different from released cut) also I hope 200 Years Old is the extended version played on WPLR in 1975. I am hoping for some different mixes. Maybe I Am the Slime is the single edit?
I am in on this.

Oddly, this was backordered from Barfko. "Mothermania" arrived yesterday, and the slip gave the status for this (and Road Tapes 1, which is pre-order still).
UPDATED to add - I should have checked e-mail first. I got my shipping notice about 30 minutes before I posted this!

I've listened (well, mostly listened - I was playing a video game at the time) to the second disc. There's not a lot of stuff that struck me as new (which is not a surprise), but there are quite a few places where edits or mixes are different. Granted, the mix thing may be partially my faulty memory, but there are definitely some different edits from existing versions (meaning the cuts on here are usually shorter and jump into another track at times you don't expect).
