I will stick with my CD with bonus tracks. I have plenty of Ramones boots to listen to in the meantime

Was it ever released (or even recorded) in mono when it first was recorded? I get why people want stuff like The Beatles or Hendrix in mono but unless that Ramones album was first recorded and issued in mono then it is nothing but some gimmick to garner sales.
This new deluxe edition features on disc one, the stereo mix and a previously unreleased mono mix of the album, newly remastered by original album producer Craig Leon, who recalls, “We had an idea to record at Abbey Road and do both a mono and stereo version of the album, which was unheard of at the time. I’m thrilled that now, 40 years later, we followed through on that original idea.”

It may end up sounding better than the weird stereo mix with the guitar all on one side and the bass all on the other.
Not a sucker for hype, but it's got good reviews. I think one may be winging its way into my hands for my birthday next week. Will report back.
