Are they both clean? There is an f-bomb in the original uncensored version.

FYI - I unearthed the uncredited sample used at the
beginning of "Novocaine For The Soul".

It's from a Beatles knock-off record from 1964. (!)

Details, including scans and sound clips, are in my

post from the Steve Hoffman forum.

I used to own that particular CD, briefly. I had been looking for the clean version that I had often heard on the radio and this would surely be the ultimate CD to go with. Fast-forward to the particular radio-unfriendly word in the middle of the song, and Track 1 (Radio Edit) was censored, but it did not sound like the same cut I usually heard on the radio. Track 2 (Radio Version) was not censored at all! Sadly I gave the CD away but I believe the printed runtimes were about right. I can't recall any other differences, they both sounded exactly like the album mix, save for that small, aforementioned edit to Track 1.
