I just checked it out, and that's a pretty impressive ep. In addition to the Alejandro track, there are live tracks with Tom Morello, Roger McGuinn, and Danny Federici. If you buy it from iTunes, you get the four audio tracks, plus videos of each track. Best of all, Columbia is donating all of its net profits on the sale of the ep to the Danny Federici Melanoma Fund. So this is one to actually buy, as opposed to getting it by , uh, other means.
