They're tracks on the CDs that you hold in your hand!

Waiting for these to come.

Sorely disappointed that 'Satisfied' isn't on the bonus disc. That's the only O2 song I've never heard. :banghead:

Do you know if one of these track is the work title or something for "Satisfied"?

No, Autosound is an instrumental. Sounds like it's from the earlier years of O2 (early 90's).

Sawdust is a bit of a naughty one - it's basically Movin' On but with an, albeit nice, alternate backing track.

I traded e-mails w/ someone from darla.com about the bonus disc when it was first announced. they confirmed with James that the bonus disc will NOT be available to those who order both titles from darla.com

So basically the only 'newbie' is Autosound and that's an ancient instrumental? Shame on LTM who did such a superb job on One True Passion!

Erm, it was probably Steve & Gillian who gave the tracks to LTM... :brow:

Anyway, I really like the CD's - they sound a lot clearer to me (although I'd obviously need to see graphs! :p ), and I like the bonus CD...

Sure I'm a huge fan of LTM! I just thought with the wealth of Other Two soundtrack work this release'd be a tad juicier!

I got the O2 CDs today, but I noticed that there is a mastering a problem on The Other Two & You, the highs are too high & the low ends are muffled. Anyone else have this problem?

I would guess that the soundtrack work would be copyrighted by the respective TV programmes? :shrug:

Only interested in the Super Highways CD, but the bonus tracks on that one I already have on the Super Highways CD single.

Can't help but feeling slightly disappointed on that one.

We should remember that besides the main albums TOT didn't really release a whole lot of other tracks. A few remixes on the singles, most of which are still available on Ebay for pennies and as for the TV soundtrack work, Nick's got a point maybe the copyrights involved were restrictive to what LTM could reasonably put out. The main album track listings as they stand look great and contain the respective best remixes of each era. Not sure what more they were meant to include?

If we're gonna be ultra picky maybe the Quake Vocal Mix of You Can Fly should have been on the Super Highways CD in place of Tasty Fish K-Klass but that's not such a big deal.

I'm also a bit disappointed that Satisfied didn't make the final cut, again licensing issues perhaps? Who knows... guess our crackly vinyl transfers are all we're gonna get there.

I am glad to see the Love To Infinity mix of Innocence made the bonus disc though; it's a cracking mix :nod: and of course it'll be interesting to hear Autosound & Sawdust.

Haven't received my copies yet but hopefully this week.

Bonus disc looks a bit disappointing.

Was going to buy both discs to get the Bonus. However, now I think I'll get only "Superhighways" (only ever had that on mp3). I have an original London CD of the debut anyway.

As I'm a tight arse I'll probably get "Superhighways" off Amazon (only £7.98 with free delivery).

Well...I'm SATISFIED :D

I emailed James Nice the other day just to say that I'd received the CD's safely and also took the opportunity to cheekily ask if there were any more plans in the pipeline for OT CD's and why 'Satisfied' wasn't included...

He replied that he would like to do a CD of their soundtrack work. But no mention of possible release date. It was Steve & Gillian that personally chose the tracks for the re-issues and and so it was their decision that they didn't want to include 'Satisfied'. He doesn't have a clue why they didn't want it on there, but it's not LTM's fault!

Oh, and the K-Klass mix of 'Tasty Fish' is from around the Super Highways period of 98-99 so it fits more on there than it would on the debut. It was, I imagine, meant to be a bonus track on the CD single of You Can Fly or Super Highways?

The 'You Can Fly'-CD singles look pretty limited to me. Anyone got mp3's of these?! Looks like there was a single version, an album version and a special edit of the album version which is quite different also. Only the album version is on the newly remastered Super Highways CD.

They were withdrawn at the last minute - some made it out to shops, but not that many...

AFAIK, Super Highways (the single), was chosen instead - don't know why?

The versions of You Can Fly on the withdrawn CD singles are not hugely different to the album version; just straight up edits. Imagine a bit of the intro chopped off, earlier fade etc and there you have it.

Who knows why they swapped in Super Highways at the last minute especially as the CD Singles for You Can Fly were clearly already manufactured. Seemed a pointless waste and the same thing happened to Electronic's Late At Night the same year. You'll be lucky to find 'em these days; they've become rarities in the same league as Until The End Of Time.

Warners/London really did such a botched job on the whole SH album though; really screwed up any potential at the time.

The Tasty Fish K-Klass mix originally appeared on the Innocence 12" (USA only) in very early '95. This is the same release that contains Satisfied so unless this is a brand new K-Klass effort it doesn't really belong in the 98-99 period at all.

Selfish had been released just two years previous in '93 and it was another four full years until anything regarding Super Highways would be released.

That mix really should have gone on the "TOT & You" remaster in my mind. (If it's the K-Klass Mix I think it is)

No big deal mind... just glad to have it on CD.

What's the story with 'Satisfied'? Is it because Steven & Gillian didn't want it on the rerelease or because they couldn't include it??

I guess only Steve and Gillian will know the answer?

Yes, once again it's too compressed!

I shot an e-mail to LTM asking them for a replacement, as I thought it may have been a defect, I got a reply stating that is the way the album is supposed to sound, as it was an official & authorized remaster.

...I only sprang for "Super Highways" in the end as I already have the debut on the London original. I am still waiting for the disc at the mo - is "Super Highways" blighted by a compressed sound as well?

I second that.

Definitely want to know if Super Highways has the same problems. I can order tomorrow in our country, which is Holland by the way.
