the (us) tracklisting on ideal copy indicates there are several tracks appearing on cd for the first time and some others that haven't been available on cd for at least 10 years. the tracklisting on amazon uk is different and looks to be nearly all of the songs from their 3 albums on 2 cds. at this point i can't imagine 2 different pressings coming out, but you never know. i'm hoping the ideal copy version is correct and i'm guessing that it also might contain some of the harder to find remixes and live versions of songs, though it does not specify that. the tracks it mentions that would be cd debuts are from the us cassette version of what is beat?: hit it and which side of the bed; the tracks mentioned that previously only appeared on the bpm best of the beat cd comp are psychedelic rockers and march of the swivelheads. cross your fingers!
