    All of these tracks are available (without surface noise, crackles or loud mastering) on the latest reissue.

    In fact, it's almost the entire second cd of the set.

      I already have a mint copy. Before I opened , would like to know how long is the “I ran” 12” version and if it is a new recording or the original one. Thanks !

        Record has some noise between the tracks, fortunately inaudible while playing the songs. But still annoying a bit.
        Otherwise as the fan of FoS I'm satisfied. For me it is the fine additional LP to the album itself to fullfill the packet.
        4.5 stars recommended.

          Release is sort of a mixed bag. Nice crystal clear vinyl, but not much more for the eye. Some crackle here and there right out of the box, even after a careful wash. A real nasty one in A5 "Windows".

          Sound varies from quite thin to typical 80s and a little more bassy parts. Volume is low, had to push it to get some bang out of it.

          Overall nice to have if you are an 80s New Wave child like me. Not a must have release.

          Gives me quite relaxed feelings which makes it a 4 star release, some may count off a star for some surface noise to loud to be ignored.
