WAYSTED -Vices & Save Your Prayers - New remasters

..simples, anyone got these and know if any good/better etc etc. We all know that indie label Majestic (or whatever they are called now) did whole slew of re-releases, re-hashe many times over which IMO were nothing special.
These versions appear on a new label and have new booklets with writings by Malcolm Dome, also include: VICES: the alternate mix which only saw the light of day in 2009 as a EMI download. SAVE YOUR PRAYERS adds the 45 edits of the two singles (Black And Blue / Heaven Tonight) and B -side track Fire Under The Wheels (not the demo version that Majestic issued, the album sessions version).
Are they worthy of the dosh? Ive been wishing for decent remaster of SYP for years. Its still IMO one of THE melodic hard rock records of the 80's era, and amongst the best that Chapman/Way have been associated with.
