If you're not interested in the bonus disc of live recordings which comes with the new Special Edition of Alone above, the standard 1CD edition of the album from last year is still available:

i thought that the practice of re-releasing a basically new album again with additional tracks had stopped?

This appears to be the new trend- release a special edition a few month after the original release with a live album. Why not just release a live album? I'd be thrilled with these things if the 2nd disc contained recordings that were actually a part of the original album, outtakes, alternate takes, alternate mixes etc.

I agree, Rick. This is my go-to set for the Pretenders. Really well done.
