This has to be the gazillionth reissue of these.

It seemed to get re-released once a year in the '90s.

Don't get your hopes up. There are only 16 tracks in this collection; the original British version had 20 tracks.

Thanks, guys. Jay is talking about this in the current Flyers thread. Maybe we can figure out which Amazon listing is for the best version ... there are so many variations listed.

Okay, here's the version that Jay says is definitive, released by the British RPM/Cherry Red label in 1994, with 20 tracks. Out of print, but plenty of third party sellers:
