If like to hear that one to compare to my OG. I'm sure it's better, because I'm not blown away by it, but it's an album I'd upgrade. It's probably the only one of these I'm interested in, but I'm curious about the track either which way.
Yeah the thing with that one is, it really benefits from KPGs "detail" oriented mastering. You get that nice stacatto high end. The rim shots on La Grange are tight and biting. With RKS's tendency to soften and round the edges on things, I'm not certain he's the right guy for the job on this one. Although I'm just guessing it would be him doing it...
Yeah I bought a copy for my buddy's birthday years back, REALLY wish I'd bought two.

If I were ever to jump back on the VMP train I'd grab that ZZ Top for sure.
While I agree that “New York City Cops” is a better track than “When It Started” NYC Cops is on both the US and UK vinyl reissues so that isn’t a differentiating factor between the two.
Yup, I found a copy at my local for around $25 two or three years ago and agree with everyone it sounds fantastic.
Yeah, or in 2006 when I started collecting records.
meh... I am lukewarm on STP, a greatest hits would suffice I imagine. ZZ Top is great though.
I'm not entirely familiar with that STP album, outside of Sour Girl which is one of my faves, but I think I'd still pass on it. Out of these I may be interested in the Stooges and SOAD (I already own the Stokes) but not enough where I'd join back if I wasn't already subbed (I did 6 mo for 3 bonus albums last week). My feelings on Sublime have been made known and ZZ Top is one of my least favorite classic rock bands.

Yeah, you may be right on this one. I'm going through their albums now and fondly remembering each and every single they put out - which is a lot more than I remember.
Their debut is still one of my favorites. So many great songs on it, even the deep cuts.
