I've posted the UK edition of this before, but this USA version is a much tastier affair.
Featuring not only the edit, extended and dub mixes of the title track, but also the 12" mix of "Paninaro", which still has the power to amuse and amaze even at this remove.
There's also one of their finest ever B side tracks, "It Must Be Obvious".
What a wonderful group they are. "So Hard" has one of the finest lyrics of any pop tune ever. Ever.
