A very nice 2 CD edition featuring radio edits, rough mixes, alternate mixes and out-takes on the Helden label.
A lot of the unknown material on CD2 is instrumental, and it is easy to hear why they were left off – they simply do not fit the mood created on side 2 and some of the tracks (“South Horizon”, “Some Are” etc) are very jazzy in feel and the rough mixes are a revelation.
