Note: Steve Riley performs on “Ain’t the Same ’92”, “Papas Got a Brand New Bag” and “Killer Mahari”). He left the band in 1992 before the EP was finished. Michael “Bones” Gershima joined the band and recorded drums for the remaining tracks (“Night of the Cadillacs”, and “Sufragette City”). He is pictured 4th from left on the album cover (under Phil).

Its always neat to hear a song redone by someone else to see if they can do it better or ruin it. The Guns do a pretty good job on it I must say. “Ain’t the Same” is a great song. The original version of “Ain’t the Same” was recorded around 1991 and features saxophones. It was included as a bonus track on the Japanese version of “Hollywood Vampires.” Tte sax just does nothing for me and detracts from the song for me. So, this is e.p version, is far superior indeed.
