Need some suggestions here.

Is the Twisted Tenderness Deluxe edition worth it?

I don't have either right now, but that Deluxe is awfully tempting looking. :confused2:

if you're interested by the singles, remixes and B sides, go and buy the DeLuxe one!

I really don't like it...the b-sides (King for a day, raditation, and warning sign) are terrific, but the mixes usually make me cringe. my suggestion: just by the album by itself and download the other 3 tracks.

Buy buy buy. If you like remixes, buy it. Some miss the mark, but others I love. Radiation and Warning Sign are great songs. King for a Day is on the Japanese version of the album so it was not new to me, yet I still bought the deluxe version as well (call me a fool, as a fool and his money are soon parted).

i'd say get it for the b-sides, but only if you don't already have them downloaded or somewhere else.

definitely go the Deluxe route...well worth it.

The american version of Twisted Tenderness includes King For A Day,Warning Sign and Make It Happen (remix).

I'd recommend the Deluxe version (if you can find it that is).

It seems to have become something of a rarity these days although you can still find copies popping up on eBay from time to time. The great thing about that 2CD set is you get a bonus disc which collects all the bsides and mixes from the TT sessions in one convenient place, the only tracks missing are the Radio Edit versions of Vivid and Late At Night plus the Ice-T samples mix of Make It Happen (it's the 'clean' mix).

It's a must for Electronic collectors like myself as it has two mixes previously available on vinyl only in the UK (two from the Prodigal Son 10"), I paid about $30 for mine which isn't so bad for a UK buyer

I'm looking forward to mine arriving from the states! I picked it up on ebay for about 8 quid. There was another one for sale too so they are out there. Cheers

I wish I jumped on the delux band wagon.

Still trying to get my hands on a copy.

If you just want the music rather than holding and stroking it the deluxe version is available for download from the tiscali site. Haven't seen it offered on any other digital stores.
