It doesn't hurt that it's got Kevin Haskins on Drums, Max on guitar, and Our own Butcher on the bells, either.

In regards to the question about "Crocodile Tears...", I haven't heard the extra version on _On Glass_, but I assume it's the one from the album of the same name. In addition to having the "you" and "me" roles reversed, the Revisited one is mellower, IIRC.
