Notes
This edition consists of the remastered and expanded tracks brought out on CD in 2006 for the album's 25th anniversary. It is pressed on 180 gram audiophile grade vinyl and comes in a gatefold sleeve.
All songs were originally recorded between 1979 and 1980.
This title comes with access to MP3 download, listed under My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts.
Later pressings of the same release came with a different hype sticker with quotes from Pitchfork and Entertainment Weekly rather than Moby, and no MP3 download code or CD. There's also this version My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts that has a different Nonesuch logo (small 'n') on the labels and a different hype sticker that lists '075597983555' rather than '79894-1' as the label number.

Reviews
Incredibly dynamic, silent pressing. Even the sleeve feels higher quality than normal. Wish all records were like this. Great job by Pallas.
My copy differs from the copy in the photo by writing the logo - the letter "N" on the label. It looks like "n" on my copy. And there is no download code.
I read about this edition being reissued (soon?), but does anyone know if there's a difference. See also: https://soundsoftheuniverse.com/product/brian-eno-and-david-byrne-my-life-in-the-bush-of-ghosts-1981
I give this reissue a 9/10. Beautiful packaging, heavy gatefold stock, interesting liner notes, poly lined inner sleeves. The pressing quality is amazing, dead flat vinyl and zero surface noise. Oh and the actual recording is amazing, years ahead of its time!
The pressing and sound quality of this is great. My copy did not come with a download code.- I think this version has been reissued - at least I just bought it in NYC and it seems brand new
Extended edition, but still lacking the track "Qu'ran" of the orginal edition.
