    One of my favourite all time bands - does anyone know if the promo videos are in 5.1?

      Tracks CD3-5 to CD3-8 (all the tracks from the "All The Things She Said" 7" & 12" singles) have a mastering issue. They all sound muffled like there is a high cut filter that has been used. Tracks that play before and after on the same CD (from 1 to 5 and from 9 to 12) just play fine and sound great. What happened ?

        This is a wonderful box set and love the fact that I don't need my old .mp3 rip of Breakfast Club Soundtrack Cassette anymore for "Don't You (Forget About Me)" track.

          12" versions of Ghostdancing (CD3-9) and Jungleland (CD3-11) are both about 20 seconds longer than the versions initially released in 1986 on 12" and CD single or in 1990 on Themes Series CD singles.
          The Hi-Res version featured on the DVD in stereo (as well as in 5.1 surround) is the 2005 mix of the album that was produced using alternative takes of the songs. The new 2015 remastered stereo mix of the original album is only available on CD1. No Hi-Res version for this one.
