The remastered & expanded edition of 1997's Either / Or sounds amazing (and the whole package looks amazing to boot), and the bonus LP contains killer live versions of “Pictures of Me,” “Angeles” and “Rose Parade” on Side C that show that, despite being an introverted guy up on stage all alone, he could captivate a crowd. There are also live version of “My New Freedom,” a song from the era that never made a record, and “Some Song,” found only on the b-side of the “Needle in the Hay” 7”. Either/Or session b-sides follow, and both “I Don’t Think I’m Ever Going to Figure It Out” and the complimentarily-titled “I Figured You Out” are fantastic. Last is an alternate version of “Bottle Up and Explode!” which appeared a year later on XO.2 x Vinyl, LP, Limited Edition, Reissue, RemasteredTracklist:A1 Speed TrialsA2 AlamedaA3 Ballad Of Big NothingA4 Between The BarsA5 Pictures Of MeA6 No Name No. 5B1 Rose ParadeB2 Punch And JudyB3 AngelesB4 Cupid's TrickB5 2:45 AMB6 Say Yes Live At YoYo A GoGo C1 My New Freedom (Live)C2 Pictures Of Me (Live)C3 Angeles (Live)C4 Some Song (Live)C5 Rose Parade (Live) Studio Outtakes D1 New Monkey (Keys)D2 I Don't Think I'm Ever Gonna Figure It Out (Remixed / Remastered)D3 I Figured You OutD4 Bottle Up And Explode!
