4.0 out of 5 stars Let's get it with PUBLIC ENEMY...without the "Baseheads", October 28, 2005

"P.E. is in the house,top billin'". The song choice is superior, but not perfect (missing "Get The F*** Outta Dodge" and "Night Of The Living Baseheads"). Other than that,this CD is not all that edited (some songs already were released edited). They took "Fight The Power" from 'FEAR OF A BLACK PLANET' CD and that's edited (only the soundtrack to 'DO THE RIGHT THING' plays without the bleep). Yes,they shorten "Can't Do Nuthin' For You Man" to edit but "Welcome To The Terrordome" & "911 Is A Joke" wasn't. "Black Steel..." was edited (and shortened),"He Got Game" was edited. What's a few songs? Dawg,it's P.E. man. "Rebel...","Bring The Noise","Public Enemy #1". Cryin' because this is edited and overseeing the great gems combined into one piece? Brothers (and all P.E. fans),can we work this out? Fill in the blanks,dawgs!!!

I accidentally ordered this CD, thinking that it was remastered and the other version(not marked as ORIGINAL RECORDING REMASTERED) wasn't. This is actually the EDITED VERSION. Amazon has not clearly identified each version as EXPLICIT or EDITED. I can only assume that the other version is the explicit one, but don't take my word for it. Buyer beware!
