I tried using EAC like I do for most of my rips and having a log/cue file but this CD was being extremely stubborn. There’s a nasty little scratch that looks like it was done during the pressing and EAC would get hung on the very beginning of track 2. In this case I needed to use the less sensitive and inferior CDex to rip into a WAV then used EAC to convert into FLAC. I gave track 2 a quick listen and it seems there is no skip.

From Wiki:


Barenaked Ladies (often abbreviated BNL or occasionally BnL) is a Juno-winning and Grammy-nominated Canadian alternative rock band. The band is composed of Jim Creeggan, Kevin Hearn, Steven Page, Ed Robertson, Tyler Stewart, and formerly Andy Creeggan. They formed in 1988 in Scarborough, Ontario, at the time a suburb of Toronto.[1] They are best known for their hit singles, "One Week", "The Old Apartment", "Pinch Me", "If I Had $1000000" and "Brian Wilson"[1] and for their light-hearted, comedic performance style. The band's trademark at live shows is humorous banter between songs, and improvised raps/songs, both of which are staples at virtually every concert.[2]

Disc One: All Their Greatest Hits (1991–2001) is the seventh full-length album by Barenaked Ladies. It is a "greatest hits" compilation spanning BNL's first decade, featuring a version of almost every single they had released to that point. The album also featured two new tracks: "It's Only Me (The Wizard of Magicland)" and "Thanks That Was Fun", which was released as a single. It was released in November of 2001 to a warm commercial reaction (yet another US gold record). The title itself is a tongue-in-cheek reference to a line from the song "Box Set" off the album Gordon.

The album contains a version of every single the band ever released, including two that were never previously available on a BNL album: 1991's Lovers In A Dangerous Time (from a Bruce Cockburn tribute album) and 1999's "Get in Line" (from the King of the Hill soundtrack), which were their first and latest singles at the time (in terms of having a video and a commercial release). In addition, the album contains one of the band's most famous songs, "If I Had $1000000", which the band still considers 'never a single' (despite having several released CD singles for the song, which was only after it became heavily played on the radio. The song never had a video). Initially the band was not sure if they would include both of their less popular singles - "Be My Yoko Ono" and "Alternative Girlfriend". They held a poll on their website and the result was an almost exactly 50/50 split. As a result, the band included both songs, resulting in the album running over 73 minutes long (nearly the capacity of a CD). This may have contributed two 'new' versions used on the album. Though the radio mix of "The Old Apartment" was used, the instrumental intro was cut. Similarly, a new edit of "Pinch Me" was created using the radio edit's cropped intro, but leaving in the album version's guitar solo outro.

Most of the songs on the album had various available album versions that could have been included. Selection was made on the bases of variety, un-releasedness, version-popularity. Song versions are noted below. The album was touted as completely remastered, but as is the modern practice due to the loudness war (not employed to the same extent in the early 90's), all the tracks were mastered at a very high volume level - noticeably higher than any of the original recordings. This can (and to some extent does) create a loss of audio quality due to added compression and clipping.

In addition to the album's retrospective contents, the video for the single, "Thanks That Was Fun" was a montage of all of the band's prior music videos (with singer's mouths altered to appear to be singing the new song). The band wanted to name the single "One Weaker", as a followup to the hit single "One Week", but management refused to allow it.

The album's other original song, "It's Only Me (The Wizard of Magicland)" was included on the soundtrack for the EA Sports video game NHL 2002, along with tracks from several other Canadian artists. In addition, the band members' names and faces were scanned into the game, and can be accessed by a creating custom players with their names.

Tracks recorded for this album but left off of the finished record are "I Don't Get It Anymore" (unreleased) and "I Can, I Will, I Do" (held for the Shallow Hal soundtrack, but cut from it; re-recorded for Everything to Everyone, but cut from that album; re-recorded again for Barenaked Ladies Are Men, and available in live performance for iTunes Originals - Barenaked Ladies).
