The manics are re-releasing Send Away The Tigers(#2 in the UK charts, nearly of AM Favourite Worst Nightmare) for it's 10th anniversary and it's the usual Álbum+Demos and B-sides with a live gig. Until you see that one of the tracks of the original álbum is gone and replaced by B-side(but you can see a demo of that Song, Underdog on the demo part of the album!) Do you like when artists rewrite their history? How would you react if someone like Noel amended a tracklist of an Oasis álbum?

Not sure I'm a fan of removing a track altogether but there have been plenty of examples of tracks being added in
I'm sure bands do regret choices throughout their career but when does it stop? That album track list will always be as it was originally so not sure of the point. Would I prefer a Morning Glory album with Rockin Chair instead of Hey Now? Yes but would it then make it the definitive track list? No
One weird example was Pink Floyd on The Final Cut. The lead single When The Tigers Broke Free was actually left off the album! Then it was added back in on subsequent reissues

I have the Blind Guardian amended Forgotten Tales, initially the Beyond he Realms of Death and Don't talk to strangers covers were left off, but due to the success of the tributes were taped onto the end of the remaster.

SATT was in my opinion never that good to begin with, and neither are Underdogs nor the B-side, so in this case it doesn't really matter. In general it seems somewhat strange to celebrate an anniversary of an album by changing its tracks though.
