In the newly mixed version, seven unpublished tracks were included, but a more decisive one was missing: Qu'ran, a sound collage, in which Algerian Muslims sang the Koranverse. Critics smelt of self-criticism on the part of the artists. Qu'ran was deleted from the title list 23 years ago. The clarification of the rights for the vocal samples, which is still a challenge for every legal department, lasted for over a year, and the conservative US rock press accused them of "cultural imperialism." Eno and Byrne decided "from respect" to take the play from the album. The loss is to be overcome. Qu'ran is not the worst among the spirits in the bush.

Yeah, but the track they replaced it with "very, very hungry' is a far better track and hasn't dated like "Qu'ran' has.

''Regiment'', ''The Carrier'' and ''A Secret Life'' also utilise some Muslim singing and speech samples (probably even Quran citing as well). I haven't heard track ''Qu'ran'' itself, but these are great songs; would be a pity to lose them as well because of some silly needs-of-the-day p.c. =( To lose any good music for that matter. :\

I'm sure such musical icons as Eno & Byrne will be very distressed that pouncing_panda hates them.

The Palestinian band [artist]Checkpoint 303[/artist] keeps reminding me of the same general aesthetic and approach that Eno and Byrne used.

"Hate, but I can't seem to remove them from my library." How did it get in your library in the first place if you 'hate' them?
