A couple of questions for those in the know. Can anyone tell me what tracks are on these;

  1. the Japanese 17 track promo CD cat. No DCI 3098

  2. the Best of New Order Promo box set -London 8285802

How many where distributed?

The answer to question 1 can be found by clicking here.

The promo box had exactly the same tracks as the regular UK release. It contained the album on both CD and cassette, plus a discography.

Blue - is this a naive question? - how come Japan gets releases like that and we have to suffer 'The Rest bite of NO'?

It's just not cricket ... or football.

Frads! I wondered how long.... Yes, we were abysmal. We've been abysmal all season. Had a legitimate shout for a pen in the last minute, but we didn't deserve the point. Doesn't help that I'm surrounded by Portsmouth supporters all day.

And Huntsy, I don't know! I believe that everything in Japan is just that little bit more advanced.

Not sure about the Japanese one but the "chocolate box" was released in 1000 units. Originally I had been told 5000 but that was only what had been planned. Currently going for upwards of £70.

Well, I imagine we'll be in the bottom six or seven for the duration. Would you believe we've got no money? And that our squad is wafer-thin? And that half of said squad is injured? And that our Great White Hope forward - signed on a free, no less - has yet to play a first-team game? And that the crowds are lower than expected because your average supporter in the Potteries (lowest average wage outside the North East, fact fans!) can't afford £20 tickets? So there's rumours that the consortium that bought the club want to pull out, blaming supporter "apathy"?

Pissed off?? I'm off to listen to "Closer"..........

Hey.....I imagine the CAMBODIAN version would be really special....especially if it was released and sanctioned by General POL POT & his Khmer Rouge army....( finally Pol Pot would be able to collect royalties from the band for nicking its NEW ORDER name........)
