Versions of 1st Sonic Youth album

bobg56 · 03.20.2015, 08:59 AM

Is there any difference between the 2006 Geffen release and the 2015 Goofin release of the 1st Sonic Youth album on CD. (Guess it was originally an EP.) Same tracks? Same booklet?

Thanks,

Bob

Although well intentioned, this reply doesn't actually answer OP's question as the discography hasn't been updated with the 2015 Goofin reissue yet..
My guess is that it's the exact same however, I think it had just gone out of print again. I don't know for sure though!

Probably with things like this, record labels/bands didn't feel the need to publicize in the pre-internet era, but now everything is a potential marketing campaign for a newsfeed, even something minor like a repressing of an existing album.

The Goofin version is EXACTLY the same as the Geffen version, from artwork to mastering. Ok, the barcode is different.

Yeah, the reissue seemed like a money grab by the label
