Having studied all the tracklists I'd agree with your CD choice, and I really don't like that cover image/design

Why two CD releases? okay, apart from the all important track order the price difference at �9.99 and �12.99 is negligible, or are Simple Minds acknowledging the fact that they have two groups of fans they want to please, the early lot (that'd be me then!) and the latter lot...

They were marching in Central Europe, back in the day. Marching on now, marching on now.
