Yeah, I always find it sad that Crocodile is the go-to track from OWB instead of Beautiful Burnout.

Agreed. I also think Bird1 quite transparently trumps Scribble.

Strumpet > Bird 1; the synth stabs in Bird 1 literally ruin the song for me.

Neither of them are the go-to track from OWB. That would be Faxed Invitation, Holding The Moth, Best Mamgu Ever or even the Japanese bonus track, Loads of Birds. BB puts me to sleep and Crocodile is a bland version of a great track that debuted in 2005 (see Zurich 2005 show http://uwlive.rowla.com/gigs/view/264)

But I suppose some people love BB...After all, it was once Biro The Leggy.

You know, I've never actually heard Biro the Leggy. I always meant to ask about it because when BB appeared everyone seemed to know it already, but I'd never heard it. Where can I dig it up?

That's the version that UW put together for the John Peel tribute show in 2003.

The earliest known version can be heard on the Electraglide 2000 bootleg.

Biro was taken out on the road in 2006, most notably heard on the Cocoon gig, before becoming finalized in its 2007 album release.

I seem to have missed that broadcast, all I have is the Underworld performance for Peel in 2003. Is that tribute show available? Doesn't seem to be on RTSR.

Re: A Collection 2 (Surprise Release?)
Sorry, my mistake. The Peel tribute show, Keeping it Peel, was on Dec. 16, 2004, on Radio 1. Artists sent in tribute tracks or performed live. Biro the Leggy (as heard in the YouTube above) was Underworld's (pre-recorded) contribution.

Underworld debuted that version two days earlier on Dec. 14 on a Dirty Radio broadcast. I don't have that particular broadcast on the tracker yet, because I'm still looking for more sources.
