Notes
Rare 1998 UK EMI promotional-only box set, including EPK video, promotional-only Greatest Interview CD in custom picture sleeve with question cues [CDINDD001], 8-page biography booklet and a 7" x 5" black & white publicity photograph. All housed in a video case style box with unique picture sleeve.
There are (at least) 3 versions of this box set - two with a PAL VHS tapes & one with a NTSC; with 2 key differences -
1. The NTSC version is noted by an additional red "NTSC" sticker on the right hand side of the spline label on the tape.
2. & the tape length stated on the tapes are either E60 or E65 on the PAL version & E95 on the NTSC.
The difference in tape length is explained by them both being made by EMI in the UK using tapes designed for the UK market - where NTSC plays ~42% faster. So 65 mins x 142% = 92 mins & 18 secs.
(whilst all of the EMI International promo tapes from this era appeared to be X5 mins long - as opposed to any being X0 mins - having just received another PAL version of the box set with a 60 min VHS tape from a seller in Australia then this clearly isn't a strict rule)
It is possible that some of the NTSC versions only came with the tape.
