If your younger than when this came out the new one with Liam Neeson and Ricky Wilson in it might be up your street. It's got a little more of a modern twang to it but it's still essentially the same concept. It's a bit longer too with extended scenes around the artilleryman and his brave new world concept.

It's 17 squid on amazon atm. I don't know how cheap it will be in the shops.

Got a big booklet and all that jazz like the other one.

I got the original, as it was only 3 quid in What's Entertainment. I'd like the one that Kyle mentioned at some point when I have some spare dosh.

I've not given the modern one a listen, I'm a bit skeptical it would ruin it for me.

I got past that by treating it as an alternative to the original one rather than a rehash.

Must say though I was a little shocked when I first heard eve of the war because I thought they butchered it but I gave it a full listen and personally thought the second part of the album was the better version compared to the original.

I listened to the new one and though I thought Liam Neeson's narration was good, Richard Burton was better, and really defined it.

Think I'll take the approach when I get round to buying the new version

Burton is truly iconic and doubt he could be bettered so yes I think I'll feel the same when I listen to it, no detriment to Neeson who I can see doing it justice, but original is where it's at in this case overall.

I just really love listening to it, have done since childhood (yes Ben, I know that's a long time )

Only taken me 4 months to reply.

I'm gonna listen to the new one this weekend, but I reckon I'll feel the same as you.
