I owned BBC sessions before I owned Young Team, so my senses are tuned to overkill on Like Herod. Your right on the opening track, Hunted By A Freak is easily better than the album version. Peel saying "Ladies and gentlemen... Mogwai" will forever evoke nostalgia of good times.

I need to buy Rock Action!

The version of R U still in 2 it on government commissions is kinda cruddy, the version on Young Team is planet smashingly great. That whole album is monumental apart from Mogwai fear satan, which for some reason ive never liked... its like Schizophrenia by SY, i dont get the fuss.

Agreed. The Young Team R U still in 2 it is untouchable. I can totally understand Mogwai Fear Satan being a bit understated when it's hyped as a classic Mogwai song, with its repetition being a bit boring, but I really love the remix by Mogwai on Kicking A Dead Pig. Added flute = Love

What's that Wu-Tang verse or by someone affiliated with Wu-Tang "Now you know how Mase felt..."

Something about him getting punched in the face, what's that whole story or am I confused.

[louder]

back in the late 90's Ghostface punched Mase at a club in NYC and broke his jaw.
that verse is actually by Kanye, he just used that incident as a reference to demonstrate how he felt when his own jaw was broken in a car accident.

Yeah. i was particularly disappointed with their version of Calvary Cross, you'd think that would be the highlight but it was just... poor
