    dickie.
    My copy has the book cover upside down. Is this a common issue?

      For the purposes of comparison, this 4xLP contains 47 tracks (some in different sequence) to the equivalent 3xCD box set which has 52.

      Thus this means that five tracks on the CD are omitted from this vinyl format:
      they are -
      Once I Had a Love (1975) - CD1 track 7
      Kidnapper (Take 2) - CD2 track 6
      War Child (Chris Stein Mix) - CD3 track 9
      Call Me (Chris Stein Mix) - CD3 track 10
      Heart Of Glass (Chris Stein Mix) - CD3 track 11

      Not sure if this is due to limitations on the vinyl and that they can't fit these in but I suspect that this is not the case. Side 2 of the 4th LP has only three tracks and 16 mins running time and surely that could have been enough room to add two more tracks here!
      The five omitted tracks add another 22 minutes in total which suggest that two tracks could be fitted in on each of sides F, G and H easily - with room to spare!

        Great biography and great bonus material!
        I love how every LP has its own theme in terms of design, like they're all different albums. :)

            The 4 LP set available on amazon includes Moonlight Drive but not Kidnapper - is this a different version?
