[Nagnagnag] Yashar-ology

[mike at angryjester.com]

I think the most unusual version I've heard is the one on the
Factory-Benelux compliation from about 1983 ("Factory-Benelux
Greatest Hits").  It's a sort of remix of the Factory extended remix
with more of the extraneous vocals ("Whatcha got - over here...").

Today it seems somewhat dated in the remix style, but it's definately
interesting.
