It seems they completely forgotten the song 'Questions'. There are 3 versions available on 2 different 12'' singles if i'm not wrong. A couple of edits feature on the 7'' release as well.
All absent from the box.

Anyway, the mastering is better than what's have been available on cd before (apart from The Crunch & Beyond which is more dynamic on the original cd release), all discs have a dynamic range from 10 to 11, which isn't bad in these times.

They could not find any master tape of "Questions" that was good enough....

As for the "Questions" track: Intentionally, that track was to be included as well but it was said to believe that there was no source for it. No master could be found... it was revealed on the August 30th podcast on their website (which is the
most recent podcast).

Well, so it seems i'll keep doing with my great 24/96 transfer of both 12'' singles, which fortunately are in perfect conditions.
