Yes, this is the same material from "Bloodied but Unbowed," minus two songs.

The good news is that they've remastered the disc. Everything sounds louder and crisper now. As a fan (fanatic) of Bloodied, I can hear a distinct difference in the new versions. They just sound better, fuller, clearer. This alone was worth the price for me.

WHICH VERSION?

The US and British versions of ACE are exactly the same sound quality, but totally different artwork. I STRONGLY recommend you go out of your way to buy the British version. The US version has essentially no artwork, and the cover is oddly a Widowmaker-era picture of Dee.

The British version, on the other hand, has a very THICK booklet with a bunch of real, genuine Desperado-era pictures of the whole band, and a brand new long interview with both Dee and Bernie Torme about their present-day feelings on the album.

Here's the executive summary for you all:

USA "Ace": Black cover, just picture of Dee.....BAD
British "Ace": White cover, picture of band......GOOD!

British version is $22.50 on Amazon for us Americans. Go buy it - well worth your $$$s!
