My package has come this afternoon, just popped on CD1 now The book set is a lot thicker than the previous bunch of deluxe albums in this form. Look forward to looking at the pics and reading the write-up. And just have to say so far, why did they include that remix of SWSS? I thought it was crap 20 years ago and I still think that on listening now haha.
Bit disappointed that the ending of The Convalescent is cut short, I love that long outro with the "oooo" and "aaahhh" going on so hearing it cut in half was disappointing to hear.

The geniuses have sent my bundle without the signed insert.

Some things never change, eh?

You can't blame them when they are on the same CD. And on youtube, all 57 or how many tracks are on one single playlist. That's....wrong ImHO

This really sucks. Is it not behind the booklet or in the sleeves?

Nope, no sign - have checked a few times just in case. Probably ran out of signed copies and just chucked me a standard one. A bit of a dampener on what is otherwise a great reissue.

Played all the way through now and got the demos on. I can't say there's much, if anything, changed on some of the songs that I could hear. Some are more obvious if you know the songs well I guess, having listened to it for 21 years. The vinyl isn't 180g heavyweight though, it seems lighter than other vinyls I have that are heavyweight. Anyway. Gonna get into bed and read the write-up in the booklet

Mine is going back as the front print is on the piss and looks crap. Kontraband are unable to send a replacement as they've 'sold out'. I was offered a 20% refund but as its unlikely I'll wear a shirt that looks shit I've opted for a full refund. Absolute bollocks.
