Almost 2 years after the proposed release date, this is finally out in Japan in a mini-LP sleeve. Sound quality is [i]much[/i] better than the Unlimited cd compilation. Everything seems to be from masters
EXCEPT my favourite : White and green place (extraterrestrial mix), which sounds a bit flat and muffled. Still glad to have the album on cd finally though.

Yes. Picked this up recently, quite, quite good. "Why Can't We Live Together" (mastered from cassette) sounds crapola... A great released produced by Mr. Adrian Sherwood.

Is there a difference in the track listings?

The track list is the same as the LP, but there are 4 bonus tracks at the end : three 12" A-sides, and one unreleased version of Why can't we... as mentioned above. This version is actually better than the released version despite the horrible sound - more clattering percussion courtesy of Adrian Sherwood, and featuring vocals by Janine Rainforth (before she left) and Dennis Bovell.
Too bad they didn't include any of the 12" B-sides..

Thanks-I just ordered from CD Japan-not sure if this is the cheapest source, but they are reliable and have a broad selection.
