Does anyone know of the tracklisting of any of these remasters? I found this on CDUniverse, but nothing else. Sorry in advance about having to scroll from left to right, but it was the only way I knew to get all the info on here. [:)]

Thanks, Surly, but I looked on Amazon UK yesterday morning and I found nothing mentioned about these resmasters.

Thanks for your time!

They're there - you just have to dig for them a little. I have them all on preorder. Try doing a search by band and album name, such as "ABC Beauty Stab." You'll find them that way, and they are to be released 11/7.

They're also available on The Ideal Copy, and there are more details there on the bonus tracks. It looks like "Alphabet City" includes the 7" mix of "When Smokey Sings"!!! I have it on a CD single, but to my knowledge it has never been on any other CD. It will be nice to finally have a remastered version of that mix!

GRRRR!!!!!!!!

I just got these, and while I am generally happy, one thing pisses me off: the single mix of "When Smokey Sings" is NOT on the Alphabet City reissue!!!!!! That's the ONE thing I really wanted out of these reissues. I mean, I have a CD single from 1987 with that mix on it, but the mastering is lousy. I'm also a little miffed that the USA Remix of "Vanity Kills" on the Zillionaire reissue is the 12" mix, not the 7" mix. Again, I have that already - on one of the Living In Oblivion CDs, but I wanted a newly remastered version.

GRRRRRRR!!!!!!!

(I'm still happy to have them...)
