Present thoughts:

As a music release this still pleases me, I don't think there is a bad track on it.
As a release as a whole, I find it annoying. The art on the front cover by Keith Mallinson and the back of the booklet by Lucy Williams are absoulutely marvellous. Unfortunately, on recieving the finished article, the vast majority of the text in the booklet was written in German since Andy was insistent that A23 releases sold better on the continent. I am still not pleased about this. Also the art on the cd itself came as a surprise. A hammer and sickle for god sake! I simply can't look at the whole package in a good light even now......
