I love this cd. Count me in. Thanks for posting.

What a missed opportunity to release it in it's entirety!

An amount of so-so mixes added but all the extra tracks from the Australian version and all the b-sides including the released in the UK are missing:
- Girl
- I Ask You Why
- Tell Me
- All Tied Up
- Loose Ends

I agree vict. It is a big missed opportunity. I will keep my CD-R that has those tracks.

well said Barmy

Anyone picked this up? Sound quality?

Sound quality is good. I turned up the volume on my headphones and listened for pops. Sounds like it was produced from original sources. The one I question is A Beat for You (Dub Version) which seems to have a few very minor glitchy moments but didn't hear any pops (3:15 - 3:17 marks). Couldn't tell if they were vinyl rips or just from less than desirable source tapes. Still, they're better than my recordings from vinyl.

I also echo (see what I did there?) the missing tracks from the Aussie version (Girl, Tell Me, I Ask You Why) and b-sides (All Tied Up, Loose Ends). Seemed like a no brainer to include them. Luckily I have the Aussie cd that has the 3 tracks missing here.

Overall, I'm pleased with the quality.

BTW, does anyone have Loose Ends? I thought I had it but don't.

The sound on this release is great! Virtually no compression at all compared to the original CD issue. I added the DR ratings here:
