[sbsugar]

Saw this on Amazon while checking prices on the Fresh Air reissue. Anybody have any info on it? Vinyl rip?

It's a slightly different version of the NATURALLY album. (Different running order) Not one of their best efforts but if you're a completist, it's good to have.

It's also an MOD effort (manufactured on demand), meaning that it's a CD-R as opposed to a pressed CD.

As Mike said, if you don't have the NATURALLY album, and you're looking for more Baja material, this could be a way to go.

I see a couple misspellings..."The Elephant Rag" S/B "The Elegant Rag." When I saw this band live circa 1980, I thought for sure Julius introduced this tune originally as "The Old Rag, Rag." Maybe composer Jules Steinberg changed his mind on the title? Maybe I'm just old and senile.

You mean Jules Greenburg.

I'm a huge Baja fan. Between them and the TJB, they're my favorite group. But I don't want anything to do with this. I can make my own vinyl rip with a blurry image that looks like it was taken from a youtube video.

You can also download both this version and the NATURALLY version from iTunes.

Personally I wish a lot of people would do that, as it might spur the appearance of more Baja material.

If I recall the iTunes version splits up the BMB medley as well as having the songs out of order.

It wasn't! I confirmed same with owner of the label. Someone apparently was playing in Photo Shop.

At least I didn't miss it if it was ever available!

Didn't Steve Hoffman Master many of those 24K Gold Discs?
