Notes:

There are three known variants of this CD:

[r15900983 is the original CD release from 1987.  Tracks 10 and 18 are "Shop Around" and "Please Mr. Postman".

This release is a reissue with "RE-1" in the matrix number.  Tracks 10 and 18 on the RE-1 reissue are "Shop Around" and "Please Mr. Postman".  The RE-1 reissue has the same track listing and art/booklet as the original release, and can only be visually distinguished from the original release by the RE-1 in the matrix number on the CD.  The RE-1 reissue features drastically improved sound on nearly all tracks.  The RE-1 reissue remained in print until at least 1994, as evidenced by this pressing with a Mould SID Code - [r12401704

[r22871033 is a 1993 pressing on the JCI label.  Tracks 10 and 18 on the JCI release are "Heart And Soul" and "Apache".  The other 20 tracks are digitally identical to the RE-1 reissue.  The JCI artwork includes an additional catalog number of JCI-1061 at the bottom of the rear artwork, in the credits on the last page of the booklet, and at the 3-o'clock position on the CD.

Track durations are shown as printed on rear artwork, except for tracks 5 (printed 2:35, actual 2:42), 8 (printed 2:36, actual 2:44), 10 (printed 2:40, actual 2:48), 12 (printed 2:36, actual 2:44), 13 (printed 2:24, actual 2:36), 14 (printed 2:45, actual 2:55), 16 (printed 1:56, actual 2:02), 17 (printed 3:23, actual 3:29), 18 (printed 2:23, actual 2:29), and 22 (printed 2:56, actual 2:50).  All others are accurate to within +/- 5 seconds.
