    Watch out, there is an unofficial release of this reissue. The booklet‘s artwork colour is blurry and oversaturated. Also, it happens to be a CDr.

      Great CD reissue. Unfortunately the track listing of the bonus cuts is incorrect. Switch the My Philosophy with the I'm #1 tracks.

        This one is also an very good upgrade in sound quality. Compared to the 1988 releases they did a good job with the remastering. Together with the extra tracks this is also a recommended release.
