The fact that G20C covers 12+ years after CIN should be difference enough!
Browne seemed to get some pretty interesting, honest responses from the band and their associates. Obviously Coley has a different relationship with the band, so I'm sure he'd get a unique angle. I enjoy his SY writings when he tones it down (Dirty liners, for example). I'm always happy to get more information, so I hope this is true...

I agree w/ CL on this. I read CIN so many times when I was younger. But I def felt I got more out of G20C. I remember making all these little notes of shit to research. Just things mentioned like about their proposed piano album for instance. Or I loved the section where it really went into details of Walls Have Ears. Stuff like that which just might have been too small a detail for a wider audience but the kind of stuff I'd obsess over just being mentioned.
