"Too long for fans" ?
"It was already included on the 2016 2-CD" ?
"A 12" version? What is that?" ?

There are several tracks that were on the 2CD edition from 2016 included on this release, so for me, the 12 Inch version of "Club Country" should have been included:

These are the tracks from the 2016 release that are also on the forthcoming release:

18 Carat Love Affair
Love Hangover
It's Better This Way (Alternative Version)
Club Country (Demo Version)
I Never Will (Demo Version)
Ulcragyceptimol
Grecian 2000

WLR, I was ironic....

For those of you who bought this set, it seems that the version of Party Fears two (on CD 1) is the 5:34 12" version, not the original5:45 1982 vinyl version. And apparently this album version is included on the limited CD single. Correct? If so, I wonder why they did not finally restore the original album version to CD when they obviously had the chance?

Kind of annoying, but at least both are provided. I was hoping that the original "Sulk" LP would make it to CD finally, but not quite! Still waiting for my copy to arrive. I wonder if the LP in the box is accurate. Anyone know?

Is that confirmed about the CD single?

The guy who sells it (superdeluxeedition) had a video where he says it has the album version, and it also says so on the single itself, and he usually knows his stuff.
