Synopsis

Product Description
The title track 'Puckey Puckey,' illustrates both the band's short-form and long-form quest for perfection. Disc One opens with just-under thirty minute take on the song, which Wang says, 'shows how the band would linger in a groove to find that elusive magic.' It's almost an album in itself. Disc Two opens with the only non-Wright-penned song, an instrumental version of Otis Redding's 'Hard To Handle' that's a shout out to the band's early days as largely a cover act. Among the other highlights are previously unissued alternate versions, including one of their signature song 'Express Yourself' and a stripped-down early take of the non-LP single 'Wine.'
