Is this PC&L tracklisting for real?

I went to order the UK CD of Power, Corruption & Lies, since the purist in me doesn't want Blue Monday and The Beach mucking up the album's play order as they do on the US release.

But what's this?!

Ultraviolence is missing, and it looks like they've flipped side B to the start of the record.

Typo?

Has to be an Amazon error. I'm sure they don't make special Amazon edidtions. Plus its short enough as is. 7 tracks is just one too few.

German Amazon got it right...

Oh wow... The first 2 critics are very nice :evil4:

1.)

Ich kann die Lobeshymnen der anderen Rezensenten überhaupt nicht teilen. Bis auf zwei Titel ("Age of Consent" und "The Village")breitet sich beim Hören nur Langeweile aus. Das müssen auch New Order bzw. ihre Plattenfirma ähnlich sehen, denn von den acht Titeln auf "Power, Corruption & Lies" findet sich kein einziger auf der CD "(the best of) New Order" wieder! Gut und originell ist allerdings der Albumtitel, aber das reicht nicht für mehr als einen Stern.

Translation I can’t share the good reviews of the other critics. Except for two tracks ("Age of Consent" and "The Village") the whole album makes you getting bored. Even New Order and their Record Company must think that way, because none of the eight tracks of PC&L can be found on the (the best of) New Order-CD. The title of the album is good and inventive, but that doesn’t make up more then one star.

(Let's find out this guys address :evil4: )

2.)

Eigentlich finde ich das Sumner gar nicht singen kann aber die Melodien die für New Order charakteristisch sind beflügeln und inspirieren. Dieses Album ist mit Movement, Low Life und Technique zweifellos eines der Besten.

Translation My opinion is that Sumner can’t sing, but the melodies are characteristic for N.O. and they quicken(?) and inspire. No doubt this album is one of the best besides Movement, Low Life and Technique.
