How is this 2011 limited edition reissue with a second disk of demos and some live tracks?

Original album is virtually indistinguishable from the old CD mastering. Single edits and Wakeman intros are a waste of time with the possible exception of "I'm Alive" which is different enough to almost not be the same song. The live tracks are also on ABWH Live at the NEC which is the complete show. However, this is the only way to get "Vultures" on CD outside of tracking down an old CD single. If you want/need "Vultures" then get it. If you have the song all ready or don't care then keep your original ABWH disc and get Live at the NEC instead.
Agreed. Vultures was essential for me and I'm alive is quite interesting. The others are curiosity's but don't bear much repeat.
Should have had some demos
Interesting that first time I heard I'm Alive on radio it was the version you speak of.. when I purchased the CD and heard the song.. I scratched my head and wondered why they used that version..
I really like that single version of "I'm Alive."

...and for some reason Roger Dean's artwork was reversed.
Teakbois!

Steve Howe had a bunch of demos he would have liked to have included, but Gonzo being Gonzo and Jon Anderson being Jon Anderson, he didn't even find out about the release until after it was out.Originally Posted by gojikranz

Man, it's a bitch to clean that shit off.

Ouch. But what really sucks is that this summer I couldn't get it.
What is this song you guys are referring too, "Teakbois?"
Oh, you must mean "Teakbois" (a.k.a. "The Life and Times of Bobby Dread"). Sorry, I will only respond when the full and correct title of the song is used.
