Comments: Chad Maier
This three-part series is comparable with the rest of the bootlegs as having
the best quality. This was the first bootleg to my knowledge produced by
some DJ's in Germany. Great disc! QUALITY = 9
Just Can't Get Enough (Disconet Mix) 7:43 An *okay* mix
A Question of Time (Class-X Mix) 6:55 A classic razormaid mix
Behind the Wheel (Disconet Mix) 6:56 One of the best BTW remixes!
Get The Balance Right (Class-X Mix) 6:25 Awesome razormaid classic!
Little 15 (Bogus Brothers Mix) 6:05 Incredible dance mix! Wow!
Behind the Wheel (Razormaid Mix) 6:22 Great quality remix.
Strangelove (Razormaid Mix) 6:57 Better quality than URT mix

Sound quality overall is good. As for the individual tracks:
Photographic (Some Bizarre Edit)
Sound quality good. This version uses different synth sounds to make a
harder-sounding mix than the album version.
Personal Jesus (Kazan Cathedral Mix)
Housier than the original, with samples saying, "the Lord Jesus Christ
himself" and "I'm not crazy any more!".
Just Can't Get Enough (Disconet Mix)
Fairly good cut-and-paste of the Schizo mix, with a whooping sort of UFO
sound used throughout.
A Question Of Time (Class-X Remix)
Standardish Razormaid thing. Has a female "oh!" sound used throughout.
Behind The Wheel (Disconet Mix)
Very unremarkable.
Get The Balance Right (Class-X Remix)
Another standard cut-and-paste.
Little 15 (Bogus Brothers Mix)
Adds a funky beat to the track. Sound quality is OK except for a bit of
vinyl noise. The actual mix is great though--some thought was put into
the arrangements. A really good version of the song.
Dreaming Of Me (Discotrax Mix)
A few effects added to the original, and a longer instrumental break. A
fairly good mix, but there is a bit of vinyl noise.
Pleasure, Little Treasure (Razormaid Mix)
Quite good, the mix breaks down into the song's component parts (drum
breaks, BVs etc.) towards the middle and end. A few extra samples and
instrumental sounds.
Behind The Wheel (Razormaid Mix)
Similar to the original. There's a sample of a car going past at one
point, and a long instrumental break at the end.
Strangelove (Razormaid Mix)
Instrumental breaks at the beginning and end, otherwise nothing unusual.
Dangerous (Art of Mix)
A bit of minor cutting and pasting, and the standard long instrumental bit
at the end, finishing with some zooming car sounds. Dodgy sound quality
for a few seconds in the middle.

Comments: Chad Beckett
Little 15 (Violation 15) mixed by the bogus Brothers is the best bootleg mode
mix I've heard. They competely revampted the tune. The bass line is very
effective, as is the incidental cresendo wave synth added on top. The drum
additions are also first class. My only disappointment is that the origional
source was so poor. The transcription from the Bogus Brothers remix 12' to
CD was poor. The 'real' Little 15 was badly recorded as well. Though I
realize they had to use vinyl to speed up the song, better recording
equipment would have really enhanced the refinished product. This one song,
easily, was worth the 25 bucks it cost me for the CD.
