He did all the good parts.  

Rider was responsible for all the awful bongos and sappy vocals.

;-)

Actually, I was a bit disappointed with the LP version, especially since
they pulled a lot of the uncleared samples which made tunes like
'Where's Jack the Ripper' so wicked.

Also, with exception of Ripper and 560, most of the tracks didn't end up
as dance floor friendly as people were expecting, even optical himself.

One of these days, I'm going to borrow my roommate's 2 cd version and
give the whole damn thing a good listen while reading a book or
something.
