I have a much loved battered old copy of the original Made In Japan- arguably still the best live album ever- but I was wondering whether I should get the re-release which adds three songs from the same shows not included on the original album: Black Night, Speed King and Lucille. Are they worth it?

Also, has anyone heard Dream Theater's remake of the entire Made In Japan album? What was that like?

I have the old CD pressing of it and I borrowed the new one from the library - the encores were interesting but nothing I'd have to own. Speed King is perhaps my favourite Purple track, but I think I prefer the studio original by a longshot, this live version wasn't quite as sharp and aggressive. But I've listened to them once so far, so I can't say anything final.
It's on PA!

You're not talking about the 3 CD boxset "Live In Japan"? I'm a bit lost in this jungle of reissues.

I keep going back to my vinyl copy. It sounds much better than the cd which sounds thin in comparison to my ears.
