NOW 12″ 80s: 1985 – Part Two

Posted on September 27, 2025September 29, 2025 by Paul Sinclair

NOW Music remind us what a strong year 1985 was in pop, with a 4CD set that presents ‘Part Two’ of 12″80s:1985, as NOW continue to step through the 1980s, year-by-year, spotlighting extended mixes of hit songs.

The first disc includes Wham’s ‘I’m Your Man’ (in ‘Extended Stimulation’ guise), the ‘Special Dance Mix’ of Eurythmics’ ‘There Must Be An Angel (Playing With My Heart)’ (which wasn’t on the first 12-inch single), the ‘Urban Mix’ of Tears For Fears’ smash Everybody Wants To Rule The World, the 12-inch remix of Bryan Ferry’s ‘Don’t Stop The Dance’, a remix of Stephen Duffy’s ‘Kiss Me’ the ‘Mixe Plural’ version) and the ‘Extra Special Long Mix’ of Nik Kershaw’s excellent ‘Don Quixote’.

Because this is 1985, there’s many songs which feature on albums that are currently in a reissue cycle. Tears For Fears is mentioned above, but on CD 2 there’s also Fine Young Cannibals ‘Johnny Come Home’ (which features on the FYC40 deluxe set and is in Atmos, as a bonus track, on the recently announced The Raw & The Cooked SDE exclusive blu-ray). Disc two also includes the ‘Cutback Mix’ of Simply Red’s ‘Money’s Too Tight To Mention’, the 12-inch version of The Pointer Sisters’ Neutron Dance (which featured prominently in the soundtrack of Beverly Hills Cop) and the Extended Dance Mix of Loose Ends’ ‘Hangin’ On A String’ (which featured on 1985’s NOW Dance compilation, fact fans).

CD 3 has contributions from Paul Hardcastle, Art of Noise, Propaganda, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Yello, Billy Idol and ZZ Top while the final disc offers up extended versions of hits by Maria Vidal, Amii Stewart, Dead Or Alive, Sheila E, Steve Arrington and more. It ends with the once rare-on-CD extended version of Paul Young’s ‘Every Time You Go Away’.

If CDs aren’t your thing, NOW Music are also releasing a coloured vinyl box set of 12-inch mixes called NOW Presents…12” 80s: Volume Two: 1983-1984. This is a follow-up of the 1980-82 box that was issued last December and like the CD versions is stepping through the 80s, although this time it’s two or three years at a time. This features 44 tracks across the five coloured vinyl records (full tracklisting, below).

Both compilations are released on 17 October 2025.

The Rolling Stones / Black and Blue reissue

Posted on September 24, 2025November 9, 2025 by Paul Sinclair

The Rolling Stones will reissue their 1976 album Black and Blue in November, across at least six physical formats.

All formats use a brand new Steven Wilson stereo remix, in place of the original, while a blu-ray included with the 4CD and 5LP box sets (it’s not available separately) offers a Steven Wilson Dolby Atmos Mix as well as a hi-res version of his stereo mix. The blu-ray also includes a live recording from the Stones’ 1976 Earls Court show (21 tracks).

There’s a bit of repetition on the box sets and they break down like this

CD 1 / LP 1: Steven Wilson 2025 Remix
CD 2 / LP 2: Outtakes and Jams
CD 3 & 4 / LPs 3, 4 & 5: Live at Earls Court
Blu-ray: Atmos & Stereo Mixes, Les Rolling Stones Aux Abattoirs, Paris-Juin 1976, Live at Earls Court 1976

It’s worth noting that the Earls Court show on the blu-ray is in Dolby Atmos and “Les Rolling Stones Aux Abattoirs, Paris-Juin 1976”, on the same disc, is a “previously unreleased live TV recording from Paris”. So very good content, indeed on this blu-ray, although you have to buy the box to get it, as mentioned previously.

The ‘Outtakes and Jams’ disc in the boxes offer previously unreleased audio, including the high-energy disco stomp of Shirley and Company’s ‘Shame, Shame, Shame’ and jams with guest guitarists including Jeff Beck, Canned Heat’s Harvey Mandel and Robert A. Johnson.

Both super deluxe box sets (vinyl and CD) come with a 100-page hardcover book featuring a brand new essay by Paul Sexton, exclusive photographs from the album sessions and tour, and a replica poster from the 1976 Paris concert.

Fine Young Cannibals / ‘FYC40’ deluxe and Raw & The Cooked SDE exclusive blu-ray

Posted on September 24, 2025December 1, 2025 by Paul Sinclair

Quick FYC pre-order at the SDE shop

Fine Young Cannibals celebrate 40 years this November with some exciting products including FYC40 – a career spanning 4CD+DVD deluxe set – and an SDE exclusive blu-ray of their transatlantic number one album The Raw & The Cooked, featuring a David Kosten Dolby Atmos Mix of the 1989 long-player.

Formed in 1985 by Andy Cox, David Steele (ex-The Beat), and Roland Gift, the band broke through with ‘Johnny Come Home’ and their cover of ‘Suspicious Minds.’ The Raw & the Cooked brought global fame, with ‘She Drives Me Crazy’ and ‘Good Thing’ both hitting No 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the USA.

FYC40 is the very best of Fine Young Cannibals that features:

CD1: Fine Young Cannibals’ self-titled album plus 8 bonus tracks (including previously unreleased Anne Dudley sessions)
CD2: The Raw & The Cooked plus 10 bonus tracks
CD3: Select remixes 1989-1996 including 2 previously unreleased mixes by Prince Paul and Juan Atkins
CD4: More remixes 1996-2025 include four new 2025 remixes (Flight Facilities / DJ Q / Initial Talk / The Reflex) and 3 remixes on CD for the first time (Cerrone, Dimitri from Paris, Derrick Carter)
DVD: Restored music videos in HD, ‘Live at the Paramount’(1989) – 15 track full concert restored and remastered, and select BBC performances from The Old Grey Whistle Test, Wogan and Top of The Pops

In total, the FYC40 deluxe edition features over 100 tracks and the hardcover book packaging is housed in a heavyweight slipcase. Audio is remastered and there’s essays by Andrew Harrison and John Earls.

The Raw & The Cooked was a smash hit and contains many singles, including ‘Don’t Look Back’, ‘I’m Not The Man I Used to Be’ and the band’s two USA number ones, ‘She Drives Me Crazy’ and ‘Good Thing’.

The album includes tracks co-produced with David Z who worked extensively with Prince, notably ‘She Drives Me Crazy’ and ‘I’m Not Satisfied’, but the rest of the album, including ‘Good Thing’, was mostly produced by the band with engineering credits being shared by Julian Mendelsohn, Robin Goodfellow, Dave Anderson and John Potoker.

David Kosten has rebuilt a 2025 stereo version of the album from the master tapes and from that created an immersive Dolby Atmos Mix of The Raw & The Cooked. The SDE exclusive blu-ray (#53 in the SDE Surround Series) also includes 2025 5.1 mixes from Kosten, headphones-only Binaural Mixes and Instrumental versions of each (Atmos, 5.1, Stereo and Binaural). Note, that no multi-track tapes could be found for the song ‘Don’t Let It Get You Down’ so David made use stem-splitting technology for that track to create Atmos, 5.1 and instrumental versions (the stereo is the original).

Additionally, the blu-ray features the original 1989 master, the 2013 remaster and a new 2025 remaster of The Raw & The Cooked.

The Cars / Hearbeat City deluxe edition

Posted on September 24, 2025October 27, 2025 by Paul Sinclair

The Cars’ 1984 studio album, Heartbeat City, will be reissued as a 4CD+vinyl LP deluxe edition in October.

Featuring many hit singles, including ‘Drive’, ‘You Might Think’ and ‘Magic’, the album was produced by Robert John “Mutt” Lange and remains the band’s most commercially successful long-player.

This new deluxe edition is in Rhino’s now familiar large format deluxe packaging that combines CDs with vinyl. This is despite constant feedback from fans who do not like these ‘mixed media’ packages.

The content looks fairly good with two CDs of remixes, early and alternate versions and a disc featuring a full 1984 concert recorded in Houston. This is in addition to the standard album on CD 1 and on the vinyl (no word on remastering). This package comes with a 12-inch booklet.

Heartbeat City deluxe edition will be released on 31 October, via Rhino.

Tears For Fears’ 1985 album Songs From The Big Chair is being reissued for its 40th anniversary across a number of formats, including as an SDE exclusive blu-ray with a brand new Dolby Atmos Mix by Steven Wilson.

The band’s second album became a global sensation, topping the US charts and spawning five hit singles, ‘Mothers Talk’, ‘Shout’, ‘Everybody Wants To Rule The World’, ‘Head Over Heels’, and ‘I Believe’. ‘Everybody Wants To Rule The World’ and ‘Shout’ both reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100.

I co-compiled the 4CD+2DVD box released in 2014 (a set often touted as a high point in pop reissues) and I’m therefore delighted to be involved again by offering fans an SDE-exclusive blu-ray edition of Songs From The Big Chair, the fourth Tears For Fears release to be part of the ongoing SDE Surround Series (after The Tipping Point in 2022, The Hurting in 2023 and last year’s Songs For A Nervous Planet).

For this release, as well as creating a new Dolby Atmos Mix, Steven Wilson has revisited his 5.1 Surround and Stereo Mixes that were created in 2014. While Wilson stresses that he’s still proud of those mixes, he says that “the intervening 11 years working in surround and immersive audio have given me a lot more experience, so I thought it would be interesting to revisit these mixes with fresh ears. Both have consequently been revised for 2025, primarily in an attempt to be even more faithful to the 1985 album mix. This original mix for me is still definitive, but as a necessary step on the way to creating the 5.1 and Atmos mixes, the 2025 stereo remix is included here as an alternative”.

Fans might recall that multi-track tapes for both parts of ‘Broken’ were missing in 2014 and unfortunately they are still missing, presumed lost. A decade ago, a pseudo 5.1 surround version of this song was created using software called Penteo to upmix from the stereo. This worked pretty well, but this time around more recent advances in the technology allowed Steven Wilson to split the original 1985 mix of ‘Broken’ into several individual ‘stems’ (vocals, guitar, bass, drums etc.), and using these he was able achieve a greater degree of spatial separation. Still not comparable with a genuine remix from the multitrack tapes, but at least providing more consistency with the rest of the remixed album.

All three Steven Wilson audio streams (Atmos, 5.1 & Stereo) are also available in instrumental form on the SDE exclusive blu-ray. Below is a summary of the audio streams on the SDE exclusive blu-ray:

2025 Steven Wilson Atmos Mix (48/24)

This is CD 3 of the 2014 box in 48/24 hi-res stereo (see tracklisting below).

Kate Bush / Best of The Other Sides

Posted on September 22, 2025October 27, 2025 by Paul Sinclair

Kate Bush will release a new compilation next month called Best of The Other Sides.

The Other Sides originally consisted of 12-inch mixes, B-sides and cover versions and took up the entirety of the Remastered in Vinyl IV box set in 2018. It was also available on CD in the second of the two CD box sets that were issued at the same time, and then released as a standalone 4CD set in March 2019.

What is effectively now a ‘highlights’ version doesn’t feature anything new, but there are some small changes. Kate says that ‘Experiment IV’ and ‘You Want Alchemy?’ have been remastered especially for this compilation and “both include a small edit”. Kate adds “I felt ‘Experiment IV’ would benefit from a longer intro featuring Alan Murphy’s magnificent guitar”.

Bush also says that The Sensual World CD bonus track ‘Walk Straight Down the Middle’ “has also benefitted from being re-eq’d” (remastered). “Hope you enjoy the tweaks!” is her final message.

Unfortunately, the full tracklisting of Best of The Other Sides has not been made available (update: as of 26 Sep, it’s now officially available – see below) but as well as the tracks above it will include Kate’s covers of ‘Rocket Man’, ‘The Man I Love’ as well as ‘Running Up That Hill’ B-side ‘Under The Ivy’. We do know there is 11 tracks in total, so that leaves five unaccounted for…

It will be released on 180g coloured ‘Lothlorien’ vinyl and on CD on 31 October 2025, via Fish People. You can ordered the coloured vinyl from the SDE shop.

Pre-order ‘Lothlorien’ coloured vinyl of ‘Best of The Other Sides’ from the SDE shop.

Bob Dylan / Through The Open Window – Bootleg Series Vol 18 1956-1963

Posted on September 17, 2025October 27, 2025 by Paul Sinclair

8CD box set of Dylan’s early years • 2CD and 4LP highlights

Through The Open Window is the latest in Bob Dylan’s long-running Bootleg Series – Vol 18, in fact – and it covers the years 1956-1963, telling the story of Dylan’s emergence and maturation as a songwriter and performer, from Minnesota to the Greenwich Village bohemia of the early 1960s.

The 8CD box set version of this release includes rare Columbia Records outtakes, recordings made at club dates, in tiny informal gatherings, in friends’ apartments, and at jam sessions in long-gone musicians’ hangouts. Many of the recordings are exceedingly rare; others have never been presented in any form.

Through The Open Window – Bootleg Series Vol 18: 1956-1963 – 8CD box set (click image to enlarge)

These are Dylan’s early years, when he honed his talent, and transformed traditional folk songs and lyric sketches into songs, including ‘Blowin’ in the Wind’ and ‘The Times They Are A-Changin’’. It concludes with a previously unreleased recording, in its entirety, of Dylan’s landmark concert at Carnegie Hall on 26 October 1963 – a concert also marked the end of the beginning of Dylan’s long career.

Propaganda / A Secret Wish SDE exclusive blu-ray

Posted on September 16, 2025December 27, 2025 by Paul Sinclair

Quick pre-order at the SDE shop

Propaganda’s classic 1985 debut album A Secret Wish is being reissued as an SDE exclusive blu-ray audio and features brand new Dolby Atmos, 5.1 and Stereo mixes by David Kosten.

A CD box set called A Secret Sense of Rhythm, A Secret Sense of Sin will also be available. This expands the album offers rare remixes and live tracks across six discs. Finally a vinyl LP edition featuring David Kosten’s new stereo mix, will also be available.

Formed in Düsseldorf in 1982, Propaganda signed with ZTT Records in 1983 and released their first single ‘Dr Mabuse’ in 1984. The album was written by Mertens and Dörper and received considerable critical acclaim when released in early July 1985 and peaked at #16 on the UK Albums Chart.

Other singles from A Secret Wish include ‘Duel‘, which reached #21 in the UK singles chart and ‘p:Machinery‘ which was issued a month after the album’s original release.

The album was rebuilt for Dolby Atmos from the multi-track tapes by David Kosten who says “I bought A Secret Wish on the day it was released in 1985 – I still remember playing the vinyl and having a wonderful kind of out-of-body experience on hearing Jewel for the first time. This was music to be immersed in and inspired by, with vast creative ambition and endless sonic bravery”.

This new blu-ray features the Dolby Atmos Mix, as well as his 5.1 mix and stereo versions. All Kosten’s 2025 mixes are based on the original vinyl version of the album (as opposed to the later CD edition).

Additionally, full instrumental versions of the album are available in Atmos, 5.1 and Stereo and there’s also headphones-only binaural versions available as vocal and instrumental versions.

Finally, the original 1985 stereo mixes of A Secret Wish are included on this disc in vinyl and CD variants

The Beatles’ Anthology 4 now available separately

Posted on September 16, 2025November 21, 2025 by Paul Sinclair

Almost four weeks after the Anthology Collection was announced, Apple Corps and UMR have made The Beatles’ Anthology 4 available separately, as standalone 2CD and 3LP releases.

By de-coupling Anthology 4 from the 8CD and 12LP vinyl boxes, Apple have effectively addressed the criticism voiced on many forums, including SDE, that it was a step too far to ask people to re-purchase three double albums – even if they are remastered – to get the new one.

Without the ballast of what, for many, would be redundant discs, Anthology 4 can now shine under its own spotlight. Newly curated by Giles Martin, it includes 13 previously unreleased demos and session recordings and other rare tracks. It also features new mixes of the 1995 and 1996 singles ‘Free As A Bird’ and ‘Real Love’. They have been freshened up by original producer, Jeff Lynne, using de-mixed John Lennon vocals (the original ‘Free As A Bird’ music video has also been restored). ‘Now and Then’, the last Beatles song, is also on Anthology 4.

The 2CD version of Anthology 4 is housed in a gatefold digisleeve with a 48 page booklet with tracks notes by Kevin Howlett. The 3LP vinyl version is pressed on 180g vinyl in a triple gatefold sleeve.

Both formats of Anthology 4 are released on 21 November 2025, via UMR, the same day as the Anthology Collection box sets (which are still happening).

Frankie Goes To Hollywood / Welcome to the Pleasuredome reissue

Posted on September 15, 2025November 3, 2025 by Paul Sinclair

Quick pre-order via the SDE shop

Frankie Goes To Hollywood’s 1984 double album Welcome to the Pleasuredome is being reissued as this deluxe 7CD+blu-ray deluxe set and on SDE exclusive blu-ray, amongst other formats.

The album features the three UK No 1 singles ‘Relax‘, ‘Two Tribes‘, and ‘The Power of Love‘ along with the 12 minute album version of the title track which reached No 2 in 1985, in single form. Other highlights include ‘War’, ‘The World Is My Oyster’, ‘Born to Run’ and ‘Black Night White Light’.

This deluxe edition put together for the first time in conjunction with the band, features 28 unreleased tracks and takes the listener on a journey from the band’s earliest demos and BBC Radio One Sessions through the singles (a CD for each!) to the album and beyond. Each disc contains rare and, in most cases, unreleased versions of songs. It comes in 10-inch style packaging (similar to other Universal boxes) and features a 38-page book, with a foreword by yours truly and a detailed timeline by Kevin Foakes aka DJ Food.

Steven Wilson has contributed an a Dolby Atmos mix as well as Stereo and 5.1 mixes for the blu-ray, and the booklet has been designed by Philip Marshall with rare photos and memorabilia and includes a timeline of the band’s rise to fame with input from all members of Frankie Goes to Hollywood. Kevin and Philip both worked on the legendary Inside The Pleasuredome box, back in 2014.

The SDE exclusive blu-ray replicates the box set blu-ray and adds exclusive content including instrumental versions of the album in Atmos, 5.1 and Stereo, instrumental versions of the six blu-ray bonus tracks (also in Atmos, 5.1 and Stereo) and a unique 12-inch stereo mix of the song ‘Welcome to the Pleasure Dome’, called the ‘Supernova‘ mix. Created by Steven Wilson, this runs for exactly 30 minutes!

Pink Floyd / Wish You Were Here 50th anniversary reissue

Posted on September 12, 2025December 12, 2025 by Paul Sinclair

Box set, 3LP vinyl, 2CD, coloured vinyl and standalone blu-ray

Pink Floyd’s 1975 album Wish You Were Here is getting the full 50th anniversary treatment in December, with a whole suite of physical products available for pre-order, most of which include unreleased studio and live audio.

Released exactly 50 years ago today, the album was the follow-up to 1973’s The Dark Side of the Moon and famously embraced themes of absence, isolation and transience. It’s only a five-track album, but ‘Shine On You Crazy Diamond‘ (split across two tracks) accounts for more than 50 percent of the 44 minute running time. Everything is iconic on this record, from ‘Have A Cigar‘ – Roger Waters’ scathing indictment of the music industry, sung by Roy Harper – with the infamous line “Oh by the way, which one’s Pink”, to the industrial throbbing soundscapes of ‘Welcome to the Machine‘. The title track was one of four songs played at Live 8, in 2005.

*Wish You Were Here* 50th anniversary super deluxe box (click to enlarge)

All of the formats of the 2025 reissue features six previously unreleased alternate versions and demos, except the single vinyl LP (which is available on ‘flame’ coloured vinyl). These rarities include two demos of ‘The Machine Song’ (which would become ‘Welcome to the Machine’), Take 1 of ‘Wish You Were Here’ and a new stereo mix of the entirety of ‘Shine On You Crazy Diamond’ (Parts 1-9).

‘Wine Glasses’, ‘Have a Cigar (Alternate Version)’ and ‘Wish You Were Here (featuring Stéphane Grappelli)’ are repeated from the 2011 reissue.

The Wish You Were Here 50th anniversary formats are as follows:

2CD+4LP+7″+blu-ray super deluxe box set
2CD deluxe
3LP deluxe
single LP ‘flame’ coloured vinyl
Standalone blu-ray audio

The 2CD and 3LP editions feature the album plus the nine bonus tracks discussed above and the box set features the same content (but the three LPs are exclusive on CLEAR vinyl) and adds an exclusive fourth clear vinyl LP: Live At Wembley 1974, plus a replica Japanese seven-inch single of ‘Have A Cigar’ b/w ‘Welcome To The Machine’. The bonus Wembley LP only features two tracks: ‘Shine On You Crazy Diamond’ and ‘You’ve Got To Be Crazy’, which means ‘Raving and Drooling’ from the same gig remains exclusive to the 2011 reissue. So while there’s some exclusivity around the formats (clear vinyl, Wembley on vinyl) there is no exclusive audio in the box set. Everything is available somewhere else. If you are wondering about ‘memorabilia’ (marbles?), the box comes with a hardcover book with unseen photographs, a comic book tour programme and a Knebworth poster.

The standalone blu-ray (click image to pre-order from the SDE shop)

The blu-ray in the box set is fantastic, in terms of content, and is identical to the standalone blu-ray. It features the album in the following audio streams, including a brand new Dolby Atmos Mix, by James Guthrie.

2025 Dolby Atmos Mix
2011 5.1 Surround Mix
1975 Stereo Mix
1975 4.0 Quad Mix

Additionally, the blu-ray offers the 9 bonus tracks from the 2CD and 3LP, in hi-res stereo. But most interestingly, exclusive to the blu-ray (and digital), is something called Live Bootleg. This is 16 live recordings captured by the renowned bootlegger Mike Millard at Pink Floyd’s Los Angeles Sports Arena concert on 26 April 26 1975, meticulously restored and remastered by Steven Wilson! The Blu-ray Disc also repeats the 1975 concert films and Storm Thorgerson’s Short Film (from 2000) from the 2011 DVD and blu-ray.

Wish You Were Here will be reissued on 12 December 2025, via Sony Music. Consider supporting SDE by pre-ordering the standalone blu-ray of Wish You Were Here from the SDE shop. Other format links will appear below, shortly once available.

Tom Petty’s Wildflowers issued as an audiophile ‘One-Step’ vinyl edition

Tom Petty’s 1994 album Wildflowers, was subject to an extensive reissue campaign back in late 2020, but the interest in the album continues with the release, today, on blu-ray of the Somewhere You Feel Free: The Making of Wildflowers documentary (details here) and the news that Wildflowers will be reissued as a special 2LP One-Step vinyl release in October, via Because Sounds Matters and Warner Records.

Limited to 6,000 numbered copies, this pressing has been cut directly from the original master tapes by engineer Chris Bellman, overseen by Petty’s longtime audio engineer Ryan Ulyate and cut for a true all-analog presentation with exceptional clarity and depth. Housed inside a high quality, uniquely designed and numbered slipcase, the enclosed LP packaging will feature a double-pocket gatefold tip-on jacket.

The details are summarised below:

Audio Source: Original Analog Master Tapes
Vinyl Compound: Neotech VR900-D2 180g High Performance Vinyl
Vinyl Mastering: Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering
One-Step Process: Dorin Sauerbier at Record Technology, Inc.
Pressing: Record Technology, Inc.
Packaging & Print: Stoughton Printing Company

Sadly, these are only available in America, via Petty’s US store (although they will ship worldwide) but SDE has a copy to give away to a lucky reader!

To enter the competition, please leave a comment below. The competition will close at midnight BST on 26 September and we’ll get in touch with the winner once the random draw has been made.

Prince / Around the World in a Day reissue

Posted on September 11, 2025November 17, 2025 by Paul Sinclair

Prince’s 1985 album Around the World in a Day is being reissued across a number of formats to mark the album’s 40th anniversary.

This was Prince’s seventh studio album and it features the hit singles ‘Raspberry Beret’, ‘Paisley Park’, ‘Pop Life’ and ‘America’. These weren’t released across all territories and were received differently, when they were. For example ‘Pop Life’ was a top 10 hit in the US but stalled at No 60 in the UK. Similarly, ‘Raspberry Beret’ reached No 2 in America but peaked at No 25 in the UK, where ‘Paisley Park’ did moderately better (No 18 in the UK, not released in the US). The album didn’t reach number one in Britain either, where despite all his critical success, Prince would have to wait for 1988’s Lovesexy before the commercial validation of topping the UK album chart.

Limited blue marble vinyl edition of *Around The World in a Day*

The audio for this reissue campaign has been newly remastered in by Bernie Grundman and 2CD and 3LP deluxe editions feature bonus remixes, including the near 22-minute version of ‘America’. Bonus tracks are not identical across both deluxe sets: The 3LP vinyl features nine tracks while the 2CD features 13.
