Yeah, it was just so surprising to hear M.E. from 1990. i thought, "wow, that's almost exactly like the Lp version, with a few less bleeps and perhaps live drums"
That must've been an interesting period, 1990-92, as the boys were onto something new and releasing it into the public to much better response than the mkI output. Maybe the climate was right, with acid house having broken and the electro-funk-rock of "change the weather" and "underneath the radar" maybe falling by the wayside.
Then again, from the UWLive posts during the creation of the as-of-yet unreleased new material, sounds like Karl's similrly excited with Rick's new output!
Another question...if Darren Price is onboard for any of the studio releases, does that mean we have UW mkIV?
