    Tracks to note:

    Discs 1 and 2, Track 2 – the extended mix/versions of ‘What Is Love?’ are slightly different at 2m52s; the version on disc 2 has additional backing vocals for a few seconds which are not present on the version on Disc 1. The version on disc 2 is the version that originally appeared on the “What Is Love?” 12” single.

    Disc 2, Track 7 – ‘Hunt The Self (Live At The Marquee)’ on this release it removes Howard introducing the song.

    Disc 3, Track 5 – this version of ‘Love? (Early Version of ‘What Is Love?’)’ is a different version to the one on the “Howard Jones? (The White Tape)”. The version on this disc is produced by Richard Manwaring (who is best known for producing OMD’s “Architecture & Morality” album).

    Disc 3, Track 8 – this version of ‘Bounce Right Back (Live At The Marquee)’ is a full length version. When it was originally released on the bonus “Live At The Marquee” 7" that came with some early copies of the “What Is Love?” 12” single, it was edited down to 5m34s.

    Disc 3, Track 12 – ‘New Song (New Mix Version 2)’ this version was previously released on the South African “New Song” 7” single.

      There is a massive channel imbalance, side two on the cassette.
