I'll savor the 100% for Weezer while it lasts; I know I'm probably in the minority. SY a close 2nd

edit - that wasn't too long

Of those, I only own S+E, and its pretty awesome. So I voted for that. Personally, I like the Jeff Buckley - Grace reissue more than S+E.

I picked Slanted from the options, but my favourite deluxe reissue is Live at Leeds.

The Cure - cause 3IB was the only release I never broke down and paid big bucks for.

I thought about that, but the vanilla tapes' overall mehscosity outweighted the documentary. The packaging fucking ruled, though.

I picked CRCR. The second disc of that is way better than the one for S&E.

The Cure one is really good, too, and it would probably be my 2nd choice after CRCR.

The second disc of the Dirty reissue is pretty weak. There are only 2 or 3 worthwhile bonus tracks on that whole thing, and it's pretty expensive.

Haven't heard the Weezer one, and I don't really care.

I haven't heard any of the nominated ones. I have or had all the original versions and probably won't upgrade any of them.

My nomination is:

The original's sound quality was pretty poor. This fixes that and adds

1. Israelites - Desmond Dekker
2. My Conversation - The Uniques
3. Do the Reggay - The Maytals
4. Viet Nam - Jimmy Cliff
5. I Can See Clearly Now - Johnny Nash
6. Reggae Hit the Town - The Ethiopians
7. Double Barrel - Ansel Collins
8. It Mek - Desmond Dekker
9. Sweet Sensation - The Melodians
10. Let Your Yeah Be Yeah - Jimmy Cliff
11. Cherry Oh Baby - Eric Donaldson
12. Monkey Spanner - Ansel Collins
13. 54-36 (That's My Number) - The Maytals
14. It's My Delight - The Melodians
15. Wonderful World, Beautiful People - Jimmy Cliff
16. Pomp and Pride - The Maytals
17. Guava Jelly - Johnny Nash
18. Bigger They Come the Harder They Fall - Jimmy Cliff

Same here, because they're all equally horseshit.

Why that would be the Fender Deluxe Reverb reissue, naturally.

I'm fairly sure this will hinge entirely on which was your favorite album in general.

I dunno, I love Crooked Rain, but the reissue doesn't do much for me; some do some, don't.

I agree with Live at Leeds though---that shit smokes.
