    This painting could be seen hanging in Jack and Vera Duckworth's house on Coronation Street for many years.

      I own a 2cd version of this and the second cd is not demos, it's the live amsterdam 94 cd. Strange it isn't listed on discogs, is it rare?

        I own this copy, got it as part of an exchange with a friend..... it is fairly used, but with a proper cleaning, it'll be fine!!! This is the go-to copy, it has "Fruitless" as second track, which is very well worth.... it sounds warm n' cuddly, beautiful, one of the greatest albums ever!!!!!

          Postcards or no postcards, this is the pressing you need to have. I owned the unofficial one and also the CD. While you cannot say that those sound bad, they just don't have the sweet silky sound of the original vinyl. The soundstage is wide, the pressing flawless and Stuart Staples voice really shines. Definitely worth the extra buck in my opinion!

            It absolutely astounds me how the majority of the sellers who have this do not have the postcards originally included with the package. HOW DO YOU LOSE POSTCARDS and then continue to charge exorbitant prices for this record? Absolutely ridiculous.
