OK, I know there's about 527 to choose from, but out of these non-compilation choices ?

The Fall were a classic B sides band "Lucifer over Lancashire", "Pat-Trip Dispenser", "Shoulder Pads", the list is endless. Any one of them was better than most bands entire A sides collection.

Thought the two-disc reissue of Witch Trials was a must buy, what with all of the bonus tracks of various singles and such. At least I'm glad I hadn't bought the live Liverpool 78 disc yet, as it was included on the second disc, along with some BBC sessions. Plus, I'd never had the UK version of that one, which was a bit different. Very nice.

The Dragnet one wasn't quite as crucial, even though I bought it anyway, I'm not the sort who has to have 5 more takes of Rowche Rumble.

Been playing a number of comp tapes I'd made over the years, and I noticed that I had the b-side Fantastic Life (of Lie Dream) on a number of them, never get tired of listening to that one. Wings is also excellent.

Just what the world has been needing: another Fall compilation album, 50,000 Fall Fans Can't Be Wrong has been released this week, stateside at least. 2 discs spanning 78-03, 39 tracks, a lot of singles as well as some classic album cuts. Ian Pillar has the cover of this as his avatar, bought it even though I already have practically all of it.

in a "best of new order" type way the 50,000 (nice elvis homage) has different track lists depending on if its the US or UK versions.

anyone tell me which is the better (subjective i know) the unutterable, or the real new fall lp (us version with the better production)

The Unutterable by a million miles. It is actually quite good.
