Isn't TWO FATT GUITARS on Twitch CD#8? It seems to me that the Twitch
remix doesn't have Eddie's guitar in it. That guitar really makes the song
sound kinda cheesy to me. Primarily because it doesn't utilize any of
Eddie's playing ability--it's just a sample of a couple of notes, all
fiddled with electronically. It only preserves the "sound", and none of
the "soul".
If I'm remembering this right, I really like the Twitch remix.
I'd sure love to hear the version Jon is talking about, though. Anyone
have any ideas?
