I picked up my copy today at Amoeba today here in San Francisco. Couldn't believe it was out so early! Disc 1 is remastered well. The whole album sounds the way it should ! I couldn't find any flaws with it at first listen. Now the second disc is equally as good except for 2 tracks: (The Greek Disco Mix) of Relax and Two Tribes (Between Rulers & Ruling) are vinyl rips! that aside i would give the 2cds an 8/10.

Got a copy of this now, i wasn't too bothered by the vinyl rips, it's better than the rest of the stuff that has been out recently, but then again it's ZTT. So gonna be good

I would have preferred that they put the Carnage Mix of Two Tribes on it rather than that crap Greek Disco Mix of Relax.It's just a shame that didn't find those masters for Pleasurefix and Starfix in time to include them. But overall I'm happy with it. Yes and roll on A Secret Wish that is one i am very much looking forward to

Me too. I would also like to see Grace Jones "Slave To The Rhythm" appear sometime soon. I don't think it has ever been remastered,right?

Just about everything on Island Records needs to be remastered.

I ordered this today. I still only have the original cd from 80s of WTTPD.

It was good to hear Relax (Greatest Bits) again. My cassette single got chewed up years ago.

Yes, got mine yesterday and it's great. Sounds great, great to hear the b sides compiled and love the booklet that came with it. Makes me wish all deluxe editons had such fun reading.
