And the vocals -- more melodic and laid back than in the regular release. Might we have had a more lounge-y Glenn if he'd allowed it? Maybe Rob Zombie can pick up those pieces like he's done with the rest of Danzig's schtick. That e. piano version of "Skulls" is also on the second collection (brown/bronze cover), isn't it? The mix of the keyboard and flashy bass has always sounded mid-'60s mod to me. Add some vocal harmonies and it could be a song by the, er, Zombies. Thanks for the shout-out...
