Here's my take on it:
I love it, naturally, but I really don't love Compulsion (and I know people wont agree) I don't think it belongs on there. It's a b-side at best and it sits very uncomfortably alongside all the other tracks. Thank goodness it was never a single, anyone buying the album on the strength of that song would've felt cheated. I tend to think all album tracks should be representative of the album as a whole and I'm afraid that one really jarrs with everything else.
Also, I think Spellbound is way too long and should've been edited down. I would have the original longer Outsiders in preference to that and would've put that straight after Jetstream on the album instead of Kingdom.
Apart from that, all killer and no filler.
You know what you want to do with that, right? You want to put a bangin' donk on it!
