The set includes an interesting and informative 12-page booklet. Curiously, the booklet's images of original vinyl labels show a comma in the title of "That's Love, That It Is," but the current sleeve and notes do not include that punctuation.

Releasing the extra tracks included in this album on a whole second disc make my pursuit of capturing the significant bands of this period a complete joy. This release puts my vinyl only collection even further into lesser importance. Although no digital replacement can compete with the dearth of great art that came with each twelve inch release, I still appreciate the care taken with this band's music. I intend to buy the rest and hope that other bands and music of this type will be given a proper release.

4.0 out of 5 stars Edited "The Day Before You Came", September 1, 2010

By 

Penn Carter (Los Angeles) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Mange Tout (Audio CD)

Great release collecting the singles, b-sides and remixes. But my original CD has a 5:51 version of "The Day Before You Came" where the version included here is the more common 4:25 version. I assume this is the single version and the 5:51 version on my old CD is the original album version. It would have been nice to include the original 5:51 version on the CD as well as the single version - there would have been enough room on the CD. If I'm wrong about the single vs. album versions, please set me straight. But a great release and must have for fans of 80s synthpop.
