I thought they were going to go half-assed once more, and just create another needless cash-in at the sake of one of the most important and greatest albums of my generations. I thought they were going to overcompress it, fill it with needless bullshit, and charge way too much for it. From the second I heard about it, I thought they were going to fuck it up.

Guest reviewer James Eldred, gives his views on the recent reissue.
