The 7" version of Concrete Hands was included on the B side compilation "Navigation"
"Maria Galante" was a bonus track on the "So in Love" 12" single
As far as i know, those tracks were included on unofficial compilations such as "Flip: the other side of OMD

I would guess something labelled 'electric ballroom' is a bootleg of the 1979 camden electric ballroom gig which circulates very widely.

I found the famous "ultra traxx collection". Nothing special; the mixes are copy/paste evident repeated sections.
And all the 192/320 versions floating around are transcoded 128/96 kbps mp3; unless the ebay's Romoboy 2 cd version includes losless or wav versions.

Finally the sleeve cover is a shameless rip off of "junk culture" cover LOL

That's the romoboy 2cd version that sells in ebay.

Another Romoboy "exclusive" compilation.
https://www.ebay.com/itm/393402253458?h ... SwfTpfauRb
basically all the "rarities" stuff and "navigation" b sides
