additional information
The cover slip-case is quite durable and is made from good quality thick card. Its glossy finish finishes off its
sturdy appearance.
Copies were originally distributed throughout Europe in December 1999 but it must've been a limited release as
the stock quickly disappeared. It's quite hard to find now.

additional information
This reissue CD was intended as a European-wide release and replaced the UK (CDV 2230), French (PM 500/30006) and
German (610 023) issues. The artwork retained the UK catalogue numbers.
Only the back of the sleeve, CD label itself and the new bar-code on the back cover had the new catalogue number (00777 7 86442 2 4).
The colour of the printing was much more "washed out" than the original CD - this appears to be an attempt to
tint the colours so they were more like the album's.
