No further details just yet, but a 2CD remaster is on the way of "Check Your Head". It will be eco-pack crap packaging however (say that fast three times!). Still, this could be great-we'll just have to wait and see if it's really 2 CDs.

Hey, did anyone get this yet-it supposedly came out last week? I love this album and with all the bonus tracks it should be sweet. Despite the lack of bonus cuts, I thought "Paul's Botique" sounded amazing and it's one of the best purchases I've made this year (got it at Target for 9.99).

Heya. Downloaded the FLAC files from the BB website... the tracks all sound great, but the remaster doesn't "shine" as much as Paul's Boutique did, which I think is more a comment on how well the original release was mastered, not so much saying this one has issues. The bonus tracks are Niiiiice.

What's the packaging like, what did you pay and where did you get it? I have no further questions at this time.

All cardboard four panel fold-out in a slipcase. The discs are not in any type of sleeve.
I got it from AmazWan for $14.97.
