Fans will be able to grab this single disc collection which boasts a couple of rare gems. I still think a 2 disc comprehensive version covering their entire career would've been better. Here's the track list :

1. Breakout
2. Surrender
3. Twilight World (Superb, Superb Mix)
4. Fooled By A Smile
5. Where In The World
6. Waiting Game
7. You On My Mind
8. La La (Means I Love You)
9. Am I The Same Girl?
10. Notgonnachange (Frankie Knuckles Classic Club Mix)
11. Precious Words
12. Heaven Only Knows
13. Waters Of March (with Akiko) (single edit)
14. Somewhere Deep in the Night
15. Love Won’t Let You Down
16. Forever Blue (Previously unreleased Big Band version)
17. The Windmills Of Your Mind

OMG

Did anyone here ever pick this up? Was it in a digi-pack or a jewel case?

Thanks!

Digipak.

Thanks for the fast reply. I just ordered the Japanese SHM version - it's in a jewel case and has an extra track. It wasn't cheap, about $30, but I'm a big fan and have to have it. I read the booklet is pretty nice in this release, lots of pics of single sleeves and whatnot.

I think we need is a reissue of their back albums 1989 onwards. Now that would be awesome.

The original cds sound great and they're plentiful and cheap. Now if they did deluxe editions with a lot of bonus stuff, that would be nice. It would all depend on how well the It's Better To Travel DE sold. I hate to say it, but probably not all that well. They didn't have that many non-lp songs later in their career and the remix frenzy cooled down as well. They might not have enough material to make 2 cd editions of each album, but who knows? I'd certainly buy them, but for the expanded booklet/packaging and extra music, like I said, the original cds sound just fine, imho.

Kaleidoscope World was remastered with bonus tracks for a Japanese release a few years ago. I heard the sound on that was quite good.

Wish they would do a Best Of DVD with videos and tv performances.

If you only heard about it, when not actually hear it, instead .
