Quality sounds good so far and really like a view to a kill , mine has number 116 on it so i dont think it is limited to 100

According to discogs (if the information is correct) there are supposedly 271 copies of this. The first 31 copies were miss-pressed with the same mix of Serious. Then another 240 copies with different colored stickers with the (right / different) mixes of Serious

Well heck... I ordered a copy too. It sounds like a decent collection and the reviews have been stellar so far.

well I can confirm some elements of Discog's info , mine is definately a white sticker saying the number , the packaging isnt brillant but I must say quality on the CD is good , also like the mixes of all she wants , well worth the purchase

Why they didnt relase the mix of a view to a kill baffles me it is really very good

To me its average. The problem is that the song is terrible.

Its one of the worst Duran songs, not even close to wild boys or any of the singles that came before it.

It was done for a quick buck, and stuck on a James bond movie.

Those of you that already have it, how long did it take? It's been over 2 weeks and I'm still waiting on mine.

Purchased 19 November. £16.45. Arrived 28th November

Got mine yesterday and I'm quite happy with it also. Mine is numbered 133, crazy to think there were so few made, but I guess at this point we don't know how many were made. I tend to like the older DD better, but still good compilation of some stuff that hasn't been released. And mine is on eBay (mgidaho) if you are looking to pick this up.

I got mine yesterday it only took 2 weeks to receive my copy is # 169 and listened to it today. The sound is Stellar!!! One of the best Bootlegs I have ever bought. I love the song selection and mixes---that Acid/New beat version of Too Much Information is a favorite as well as the Funky Rio instrumental. The 12" mix of a View to a kill is amazing-- very Art of Noise - ZTT'ish.

How much did you get?

Almost $20. Ok w me. I just don't hold onto the physical content anymore. I'm sure glad these types of items and reissues keep showing up. Love the 80s!

I would be eternally thankful if any of you, buyers of the original cd, could send me a wav file for the A View To A Kill (Extended Remix). It's the only track I have real interest in and I doubt that I will ever get to a decent rip of it anywhere. I hope that you don't find my request too 'fresh'.

Thanks in advance, just in case.

Thanks, I posted a decent sounding version myself there, but would like to have a lossless file if possible...

Get a life. This CD is not expensive. The notion that we are "entitled" to free music is pathetic.
