Yes very nice it is but it's out of print already and they were asking £20 for it when it was available.

It's on the way to me. I have ordered it because I like the mini lp style very much so I kind of collect them - not knowing about the bonus tracks. Nice surprise [:D]

I got this the other day but haven't had a chance to listen to it yet. It is in one of those lp style sleeves, pretty cool lookin'.

So, how's the sound quality? It's claimed "Digitally remastered with superior sound quality." Remastered from what? Vinyl? Original master tapes? It's funny, so many 80s fans love the vinyl sound (with the "warm# feeling with surface noise and even some crackles here and there) BUT if a CD reissue has even the slightest little anomality in the sound quality, many fans scream of horror hehe. But personally i like CD sound to be clean as crystal. That's why Iäm curious about the sound on this CD, especially the extra tracks. /JW

A listen on computer without paying much attention seemed OK. It's definitely more compressed than the fantastic reissue from more than a decade ago. I have not really examined it. Eh.

Too bad the one I have(from a year or so ago) doesn't have the bonus tracks on it, WTF?
