Big KIX fan, and "Blow My Fuse" is a classic 80's album to begin with, but this remixed CD is absolutely fantastic! It has dynamics and more punch, with some of the generic 80's production stripped back. You can hear all the instruments clearly, and even some riffs/parts that were buried in the original. The 2nd/demo CD is unnecessary, the songs are pretty much the same as the recorded/album versions (No Ring Around Rosie has some minor changes). A bit pricey (with disc 2 essentially being a throwaway) but the remix is definitely worth picking up to replace the original.

I also love this version of a great album. That weird, muffled production is gone, replaced by a much clearer sound, but one that still could have existed in 1988. The drums really bang, and the snare doesn't have that sound like there's a towel wadded up inside it. The differences are slight: "Get It While it's Hot' has a longer fade-out; "She Drooped Me The Bomb" has a solo at the beginning that you couldn't hear on the old version; "Cold Blood" ends with a touch more feedback; "Boomerang" doesn't have Steve's trailing scream at the end, and there's a bit more fooling around before 'Blow My fuse," which also stays at full volume longer. Agreed, the bonus disc is not very necessary, which makes the $35 I paid for it through the now-defunct PledgeMusic quite overpriced. There are demo collections floating around on the bootleg circuits that feature a wealth of unreleased songs, both for this album and for Hot Wire, as well as the Thunderground collection, but those don't appear here.

I guess they weren't able to secure the rights for those songs (from a disgruntled Donnie Purnell most likely). Which leads me to my other question: Are they using Donnie's bass tracks here, or did they have Mark Schenker sneakily go in and re-record them? Regardless, the remixed version of the original album sounds fantastic. Now can somebody please, please, PLEASE do the same with L.A. Guns's debut?

Donnie Purnell was a golden song writer, solid bass player, without him songs went average. Truth. He wrote/co-wrote all their hits. His bass tracks were not removed. They could have remastered only, but chose to remix the old tapes. Tried the remix, but I prefer the original mix. All I did was compress just a little and add volume, so to my demanding ears the original mix was already great. But mastering guy did not do his job, volume was very low indeed on '88 discs. If you badly want a disc with boosted sound, try the Rock Candy remaster. But I personally will keep the original as I do with most albums. Remastering is mostly a sales trick anyway (and if analogue, original tapes may well have lost some of their resolution). Demos do not interest me as such, but if they had included one/two solid outtakes/bonus tracks, that'd be extra value perhaps. And live tracks off the soundboard are always nice to have!
