This initial batch of box sets includes errors on 10 of the 19 discs as follows:

CD1
Track 1, ‘I’d Do Anything’, incorrectly finishes with an extra “do do do”.

CD2
Track 5, ‘What I Want’, (1984 Dance Mix) incorrectly plays the same as Track 2 ‘Original Dance Mix’.

CD3
The entire disc incorrectly plays in Mono.
Track 12, listed as ‘My Heart Goes Bang’ (7″ Version), incorrectly plays the album version.

CD4
The entire disc incorrectly plays in Mono.
Track 4, listed as ‘My Heart Goes Bang ’, should have been listed as ‘Edit’ of that mix. The full length mix has never been released on CD, however the label has reported being unable to source a master with the full, unedited 6:45 duration.

CD6
There is an awkward gap between tracks ‘Then There Was You’ and ‘Come Inside’ on the original album sequence.
‘Brand New Lover’ (Edit) appears to be too slow.

CD8
Track 13, ‘Something In My House (Short Version)’ should be an edit of the album version but incorrectly plays the 7″ remix.

CD12
Track 1 ‘Fan The Flame’ (feat. Gina X) / Track 2 ‘Unhappy Birthday’: Steve Coy included this version of ‘Fan The Flame’, as it was previously unreleased and acts as an opening prelude for the album, which was re-sequenced. Track 1 now segues seamlessly into Track 2 ‘Unhappy Birthday’, which was the original Track 2 on the 1990 Japanese release.

CD14
Track 12, listed ‘International Thing’ (NU-NRG 12″ Remix)’, incorrectly plays the album version.

DVD1 and DVD2
Both discs have cropped, freezing issues.
