>1) Does the CD actually have more music?

Yes. One more real track, "My Brother's a Basehead," and a couple more spoken
tracks.

>2) Should I spend a considerable amount of effort to get a dub of the CD?

IMHO, yes. "Basehead" is one of the slamminest tracks on the CD, and I don't
know why that didn't make the tape while "Fanatic of the B-Word" did.

>3) Does 3 feet high and rising also have differing tracks on tape vs CD?

No.

>4) Question 2 repeats.

No.

>5) Also, is the record different from the tape and Cd? How? Worse?

I dunno.

>BTW two of the best concept albums i've ever heard.

No doubt, my friend.
