There’s less stylistic dilettantism on the fine Express, although variety is still among the trio’s hallmarks. (The British CD adds three tracks.) The belated American issue added “Inside the Outside” and a remix of “Dog–End of a Day Gone By.” In Canada, the record includes a version of the Temptations’ “Ball of Confusion” and several other remixes.
