[bomp] Updating Music

<<< On a Byrds comp that came out in the 80s, "Never Before", the  drum 
tracks on "Lady Friend" were replaced by new drum tracks with a generic 80s  sound. 
>>>
 
And let's not forget the 1987 reissue of 'Daydream Believer' with the new  
drum track. (No, I take that back...*DO* forget that.)
 
But another Monkees-related example... Monkees fans know about how a  
pre-Monkees recording by Micky Dolenz called "Don't Do It" was dug up and  issued by 
Challenge Records as a "Micky Dolenz" 45 in 1967 to cash in on The  Monkees' 
fame....But do you remember in 1986, when the Monkees were big again,  there 
was a *modernized* mix of "Don't Do It" released...the old  record with new 
drums and synth? I think it was a 12-inch with various  dance remixes. I don't 
remember the label.
 
Of course, there are those Mothers of Invention albums where the drums (and  
bass) were redone in the 1980s...but I get the impression Chris, in  his 
initial post, was going more for cases of modern overdubs done solely  for the sake 
of trying to appeal to modern audiences.
