I'm not familiar enough with the earlier works to appreciate (or unappreciate) the clipped endings of "Tenement Funster" and "Seven Seas of Rye," but I have to say I'm a little disappointed with the ending of "Radio Ga Ga." It had to be manufactured, of course, since the original fades out, but here it's just so sudden. We're in the middle of a chorus and then, BAM! One more chord, done.

I think Harmonix could have come up with a more natural-sounding ending using some of the bits in the middle of the song, and then finishing with the line, "Someone still loves you." They have made endings like this before, such as for "Listen to the Music" by the Doobie Brothers.

But, brick wall of an ending or not, it's still a cool song and a worthy addition to the library.

The piano at the end of Tenement Funster leads into a KILLER song called "Flick of the Wrist" which is some of Brian May's tastiest sinister licks. Definitely wish they were together.

"Seven Seas of Rye" not sure why it was cut since it is at the end of the album.

Yeah--I know exactly how you feel. The album version of the song is only 20 seconds longer, but the way they cut it off seems very unnatural.

Well, I think "Bicycle Race" can join "Casey Jones" in the list of songs in Rock Band that refer to using something not so nice within the game. To be honest, I never really knew of those lyrics in Bicycle Race until I played the track. Probably because my brain is so tied into the video for that song which is........ well............ NSFW.

The Jazz album sorting is in the wrong order. In the album order, Fat Bottom Girls is before Bicycle Race, but Rock Band has Bicycle Race first, then Fat Bottomed Girls.

I think it's because Bicycle Race and Fat Bottomed were combined as a single and Bicycle was first.

Edit: i think Bicycle was first.. can't remember now..

Now I am just the tiniest bit disappoint. I set aside $20 in my PSN account for "2112" and since it's ridiculously less expensive than that, this is the first pack I thought of to spend the remainder on, but it's not quite enough I wonder, should I wait for the next time I can squirrel away even just a few dollars, or spend that $14.50 on other things? (Because I'd LOVE to add some more, but I just cannot afford it, at all)
