I don't understand how "To Heal" is on the second disc in lieu of something like "JAL to Tokyo" or "Always Loved a Film" as it's totally different (and much shorter) than everything else on the set (at least until disc 3)

yeah that one's a real head-scratcher. it's odd to have all big singles & major works and then one little album interlude thrown in there. it's a lovely track but it definitely seems out of place.

And it's not even the long verson of To Heal, the one with Rick's father (?) going "To heal and to restore broken bodies...". Was that ever officially released?

yes on the 'Songs for Tibet - The Art of Peace' CD.

I think this version of 'To Heal' could have fit well within the context of the Anthology project since it was only part of the Songs of Tibet comp.

Ha! I even have that on CD - but forgot to rip it, which is why I couldn't find it in my collection.

Agreed. I think it's so much nicer than the short instrumental version.

Got the new vanilla 'UNdERwor9LD' t-shirt, 'yr a btifl thng' bag, and a 'uw loves Belgium' postcard in the mail here in Arizona, USA from the 'Anthology' bundle set. Really great look shirt, and fine quality.

Happy Christmas indeed.

Does anybody use that headphone hole? Can't say I'm looking forward to feeling the cable sticking to my skin for hours.

When I was listening to Dubnobasswithmyheadman and then Anthology 1992 - 2002, I was thinking that Dirty Epic is a lot quieter on Dubno than on Anthology...

So I did a little research using ReplayGain software.

Dirty Epic (Dubno version) - Track gain: +3.62dB.
Dirty Epic (1992 - 2002) - Track gain: -6.09dB.

So new version is louder than the one from Dubno.

To my ears sounds better old version from dubno which was mastered by Jeff Pesche.
It have more depth, the new version have more treble and bass I think and it sounds more "digital" to me, hard to explain. Im wondering how the newest Dirty Epic on Anthology 1992 - 2012 will sound like, if it will be exact the same version as on previous anthology or not...

Just my idea, because I think that such a piece like Dirty Epic deserves the best sounding possible.

We will see in January.

just got my copy in the mail today...

the packaging is quite nice, I definitely prefer it over the 92-02 version*
and yes, the long version of Jumbo is on the disc

and it was surprising to see some photo's from that 'experimental sound field' Glastonbury performance back in '92


*although - I did find the vinyl edition of that cd to be quite nice

What is the CD case? jewelcase, paper, digipack, or what does it look like?
