I really can't pick an absolute favorite, but the one I was most surprised by was Tuned out on RTV5. For some reason, I really like this even though it's unlike pretty much anything the band has ever done, style-wise. I'm sure Roger came up with the idea for it, but with the full band it still manages to sounds like The Cure somehow.

Other standouts are the instrumental versions of Pictures of You, Fear of Ghosts, and Out of Mind. The Dallas '89 live stuff is very cool, but how long will it be until this show is released in its entirety?  :x

One interesting thing is that the live version of Faith from Rome '89 sounds rather inferior compared to some of the other audience recordings of this show. But I do think it kind of disproves the idea that the band has soundboard recordings of all or most of its shows...

Anyway, I'm just glad this extra stuff came out — and that the sound quality is better than 4:13 Dream.  :-D

Dude, can you write down what Robert says during this version of Faith? I have the impression he says "f*ck" lot of times :lol:
