Rob [/b]Thanks Rob. Are they the original versions? Or were they re-recorded for The Golden Section album sessions? Mark

Does everyone got one or two of these? I've got one, but being Canadian, I didn't have much of a choice at the time. It took quite a few years to find a copy of Metamatic. I've got the Canadian version of The Garden, too, which has a different cover, track listing, and has another song instead of "Fusion/Fission."

I've got the Canadian 'Metamatic'-era album too. The best thing about it is the artwork which is just the 'No-one Driving' double-pack in 12" gatefold format. Thick, heavy card though - very nice. The tracklist has no rare mixes or anything. It's only real feature was that until 'Modern Art', it had the only decent pressing of 'My Face'. Regarding the 'In The Glow' album - shall we start crowing to get this as an extra CD on the deluxe edition of 'The Golden Section'?  Right, I'm off to Sister Ray to camp outside and wait for 'Metamatic'...I believe Martin may join me with a flask of coffee! :p

[/b] Robs right Olaf, theres no real difference, the most impressive covers / artwork for other releases are IMO the 'John Foxx' album with the 'no-one driving' pictures and the import picture record for 'Burning Car'.

I wasn't aware (at least I don't think I was) that In The Glow had been assigned a catalogue number - what was it? Rob
