Essentially a re-arranged Assemblage, with an extra track and better version of Life In Tokyo.
speccydoughboy Aug 16, 2020
"Life In Tokyo" on this release is a unique version, an alternate single mix from 1979. It is similar to the remix on the Japanese Assemblage LP and UK special edition cassette, but has additional electronic percussion. To date this version of Life In Tokyo hasn't appeared on any other release.
