the Ronny track is the 12" version, but it's not complete. it runs 5:35 because the compilation is kind of a continuous mix--not beatmixed or anything, the songs just crossfade in and out of each other, which is kind of ridiculous and detracts from the novelty of having so many rare tracks finally on CD.

Is the Numan song (On Broadway) live or studio, please?

Figures that they would do something to ruin the novelty of this.

As far as I know, the only studio version that might exist is the duet with Leo Sayer. Hopefully, the master tapes have been destroyed [;)]
