Yeah, the DVD is great, though for some straneg reason my copy, that I got second hand has the slipcase from the NTSC version, while I have the proper PAL version, I got it signed by the way.

Great, I've been living a lie...
But I can see how one could bend the reality and justify the name "New Master Recording", after all, it is a recording of a new master "tape" for pressing, indeed the "rerecording" is not mentioned anywhere.

Yes, there is info that the 5.1 was updated:

Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't.
That would mean the 8-tracks survive, but then again, there's a bit about random noise:

Just a question regarding Musik Aus Zeit Und Raum, I believe it was only released in Germany while other countries got different versions of The Essential JMJ. Can anyone confirm if the single mixes ever got released on any of these (as far as I know they didn't but I just want to be sure)? That's ...

So it's on the single and is different version?

I knew there is a version of MF4, but 2?

Do you know which version is on E4 single FDM 16101? I would suppose the latter version that replaced the original version, is that correct?

I do like some previously unheard (to me, anyway) tidbits in the more recent remasters, though - for instance, near the end of The Emigrant on the Destination Docklands re-release (around 1:54 on the Spotify version), I think you can hear the Christine Durand soprano bit a bit more clearly than on ...

So there is a single ersion too, interesting.

Oxygène 2, 4 and 6 also has a single remix/edit version, O2 also lists O4 having longer length, possibly extended?

As in the vinyl single, or vinyl album?

Well, there is Zoolook [Effects 1984] at least.

It's bloody annoying, I have some albums that have this problem.
Isn't it logical that when you lay the album/book flat on the back so that the front is on top the spine should be normally readable? Why would any sane person invert it?

I got the E5 "special remix", which apparently is the "new" version that replaced the original on all pressings, and E4 single with single version, extended version and a version of E5 I have yet to confirm which it is as vinyl tips. So you say Rarities 3 is a good source of the ...
