Notes

Both CDs are held in a gatefold cardboard digipak which in turn is held in a firm plastic sleeve sporting Collector's Edition at the bottom. The plastic sleeve features a bar code sticker which reads: "Re-mastered studio album with bonus disc of a previously unreleased live show from the University of London Union".

The release features almost the original Factory Records artwork.

A black and white 24-page booklet featuring new band interviews, photos and track overviews is also held in the digipak.
