I'm sure some people's "perfect version" of STITI would include Born Slippy NUXX. The bands "biggest commercial success" can't be found on any of their proper albums.
uhh,
there were a few 2 disc sets that had born slippy.nuxx and rez
on it..

ger 2xcd
http://www.discogs.com/release/12154

uk 2xcd
http://www.discogs.com/release/212835

japanese 2xcd
http://www.discogs.com/release/1133872

etc..

granted, its on a separate disc,
but it wouldn't have fit on the first one,
unless they editted a track or left something off..

Re: My own perfect version of OWB
I think the point was that NUXX was not on the generally available releases of STITI. The ones that 99% of the people buy.

the lesson of push downstairs
Sorry to digress and I hate to say it, but "Push Downstairs" almost ruins Beaucoup Fish for me. It's the only Underworld song I genuinely hate. After I heard it, I was stunned they'd left "Please Help Me" off the record. I mean if anything was meant to be a B-side to "Push Upstairs" it's "Push Downstairs," surely?

However, when coupled with "Something Like A Mama," I suppose "Please Help Me" could make the end of the record sound a bit samey.

Agreed. Really should have been a B-side, just feels like a demo of PU.

Re: My own perfect version of OWB
One suggestion would be to replace Crocodile and Beautiful Burnout with the full versions from their promos. They are much, much better IMO when left unfaded.
Maybe just fade out the long outro of Crocodile a bit earlier.

But the long intro and outro of the unfaded BB are just great and help to build up that kind of atmosphere that Biro the Leggy had.
They also added a few bars here and there that had to leave on the album version.

i disagree, they blend much better together,
its boring to hear 2 minutes of a repeated bar over
and over again....those 2 tracks are about the
only things that were right the first time around..

Push Downstairs is so awesome, I just wish it was an instrumental, or the vocals were somehow less jarring.
