There's a few 'new' tunes alright, but surly they could have spent some time cleaning them up.. if they can make thirty year old Beatles' demos sound good (Anthology), why not this stuff?

It sounds like they just grabbed the files from a P2P app. and slapped them on a CD. I could have done that myself.
