As the Rubellan site is shutting down, I asked the Wayback Machine to back up the page for this release:

My copy has Runout Side B ending 1-3-1-Q and a mirrored 4 or sideways 1 and to the left of STERLING op2-2 or something like that -
referencing What A Life! (LP, Album) RML 53130
This copy sounds fabulous, basically as did everything coming out of Australian record presses in the mid 80's. Just the best sound, always reliable you can really turn it up and let it run. -

Absolutely a banger production is very live presentation great bottom end cleaner soundstage overall hard to find clean copies after all this album turns 40 next year.
I paid up for a nm copy listed as vg+
@ $50 it's a must have Australian classic rock album. -

They just do no wrong RIP Chrissy. there is no one album when it comes to divinyls you need them all and even then some releases were pure digital. Damn it’s so raw you can feel the ion in the album it’s a must spin. -
Following 'Desperate'. this is (also) an extremely enjoyable album. It contains loads of extras and sounds brilliant. Happy days!

As a huge Divinyls fan I was super excited when I first heard that Rubellan Remasters was doing a re-issue and expanded version of this album. Long overdue and I was very happy that someone was finally giving some love to this iconic Aussie band.
But what a wonderful surprise to discover the brilliant outtake "More to Choose"...it has quickly became a favourite track for me. Why this was left in limbo in the first place is a mystery.
The album itself has been lovingly remastered - sounds brilliant!
As Molly Meldrum would say, "Do Yourself a Favour" and pick up this album (and the re-issued Desperate) now. Your ears deserve a treat.
Long love Chrissy! -

The F2 Chrysalis catalog numbers followed the VK catalog numbers, the transition occurring around 1989-ish.
