Those not hip to buying non-LP releases missed out on this piece of Gang of Four product, which contains one of their hottest, funkiest songs. "To Hell With Poverty" includes one of the thickest grooves laid down by Hugo Burnham and Dave Allen -- with Andy Gill's charging guitar along for the ride -- as well as one of the band's sharpest lines of sarcastic wit ("To hell with poverty/We'll get drunk on cheap wine"). Taken as a whole the song makes the Red Hot Chili Peppers seem about as funky as Andy Williams and as brainy as -- well, never mind. "Capital (It Fails Us Now)" and "History's Bunk," though containing decent rhythms, are table scraps. Decent, panicked versions of "Cheeseburger" and "What We All Want" close out the EP, with Gill and Jon King trading lines effectively on the former. [Another Day/Another Dollar was appended to the 1995 Infinite Zero/American reissue of Solid Gold.]
