Notes from the original pressing. Later editions may differ.
'This is a limited edition: 2 of 4'
Track 1: From the album All This Useless Beauty.
Track 2: Released last week.
Track 3: From Elvis Costello and the Attractions Live In Dublin.
Track 4: Labelled as 'Cashbox Version', but the album version was used in error. Track length is correct for the album version.
This version contains the album version of 'Complicated Shadows', not the 'Cashbox version'. The timing on the sleeve of 4:44 is correct for this version. The sleeve is white on the inside.
Printing on the CD is the same picture as on The Other End Of The Telescope (Europe 1996) (opens in a new tab), but on this version has picture covering the whole disk, instead of a clear centre. It also has a different matrix number.
Some copies may contain a circle "Promotional Copy Only Not For Resale" sticker on back.
