Gi' me 'nuvvaa hit of vi'min c is particularly poor however.
There's a version called Vitamin C Ska Mix on the BAD Files which is much better.
It would pretty much have to be a different song for me to agree. The BAD Files worth getting though?

Definitely there are 8 volumes and a bonus disc. Some real gems on those comps.

Listening to a couple lesser-played albums this morning: Higher Power and F-Punk. Probably could have put together a decent-ish EP out of Higher Power with a lot of judicious editing, but I remember now why I haven't listened to it since, probably, high school.

F-Punk has always been a bit underrated I think. Some decent Mick vocals and just getting back to some music with guitars is refreshing compared to a lot of the noodling Mick had been up to. This probably could have been a gem of a record with better production and, as is always the case with BAD, judicious editing.

I mentioned a couple months ago after listening to Higher Power for the first time in ages that it's not so bad—and then got shouted down by (I think) Marky (maybe Heston).

Probably me. BAD II is a wasteland for me.

I read today that Don's first name is short for Donovan. Never knew that :)
