    [* small audible glitch on track 1 at 2:16; mislabelled on all artwork as 7243 582140 2 4 
     ** NO glitch; still mislabelled on as above; only available by sending off for replacement 
     for flawed copy?; peculiarly, almost everything to do with the CDs for a sale in UK seems to 
     have been mislabelled; the barcode on all copies was printed with the non-existent code 
     7243-5-82140-2 4, a problem which led to most sales in the UK not being counted as the discs 
     would not scan properly; even the matrix numbers were initially labelled as 582140 2 [@ 1], 
     before being corrected to 581458 2 [@ 1], however, the glitch-free version only available 
     direct from EMI was also mislabelled as 582140 2 [@ 3], as above]
