Surprising. Always nice to see these in print again.

The last time Verlaine's debut was reissued (2002, on Collectors Choice), they put out a previously unreleased mix of the entire LP by mistake! It was corrected in later pressings. The issue came to the attention of the label after my letter to the ICE Watchdog, back in the good ol' days.

(MIA on this release: the 2 b-sides from DREAMTIME included on the mid-90s Infinite Zero CD remaster, but nowhere else).

Bump: Added the description and tracklist to the first post. The new BGO twofer should have the correct mix of the debut album, but won't have those two Dreamtime bonus tracks that pobbard mentioned.

The out-of-print Collectors' Choice pressing of Tom Verlaine with the alternate mix is only available through third party sellers:

As is the Infinite Zero pressing of Dreamtime with bonuses:
