Notes from the original pressing. Later editions may differ.

6pp digipak with 20-page booklet.
All Frankie, all sex, all mixed...
Disc One: running at 00:73:01. Disc Two totals 00:68:48.
There is no cause for concern.
Note that due to a mastering error tracks 1-1 to 1-5 are one-channel from the stereo masters duplicated into both channels, as explained on www.ztt.com:
"Please note that due, as they say in the trade, a 'technical f*** up', mono masters were sent to press for CD1 tracks 01-05. One channel is mirrored on both sides. We wanted to point this out, even if you may not have noticed, even if - like Phil Spector - you would have been delighted. We hope this will not spoil your enjoyment of the All In The Body, All In The Mind singlette, presented on CD for the first time and, for the first time ever, with Welcome To The Pleasuredome (How To Remake The World) in its original, full length 11:40 incarnation."
Additional information from ztt.com about disc 1 with the one-channel mishap posted on 21 Nov 2012:
"Stereo masters have been located and have been used to prepare a new, all stereo version of disc one. If anyone would like to replace their current version of disc one with one of these freshly minted, all stereo versions then all we ask is that you please send us your current disc and provide a return address.... We will then forward a copy of the all stereo disc to you by first class post. Please send the discs to the following address:
Salvo
Union Square Music Ltd.
Unit 1.1
Shepherds Studios
Rockley Road

For your reference, the codes on the discs featuring the tracks with one channel repeated on both sides is: *053731 and *055114. The code on the new discs is: *056837. These codes can be found on the underside of the disc in the ring around the centre."
