Notes from the original pressing. Later editions may differ.
As with many other collections in this series, the majority of the mix titles are incorrect and also lack remix/producer credits - this has been corrected in the listing above.
Some more details:
* 1-1 aka "Italian 12" Mix" or "German 12" Mix" as it was originally only commercially available in those countries. Finally released in the UK in 1990 as part of the "Themes" CD series.
* 1-11 is mistakenly labelled as the 1986 Extended Mix - the remix actually is from the 1990 reissue.
* 2-1 the intro is missing the first 3 seconds.
* 2-5 re-edit taken from the 1988 "Best Of / Greatest Mixes" album.
* 2-7 edit from the 1996 "Reflected Images" compilation.
* 2-9 aka Trampolene Warne Out! (Long Version)
* 2-12 is an edit of the original 12" mix aka "All Night Version" which was 9 mins+ in length.
* 3-1 skips at 0:24 - this appears to be a mastering fault which affects all copies.
* 3-5 omits 45 seconds after the first fade out at the end of the 12" Mix.
Packaged in 3 CD single jewel cases with cardboard case.
All 3 CDs have individual cat numbers.
There are two mould SID codes at the 3 CD's.
