“The cover does not have "Head Over Heels" on it in the text at the bottom that promotes the singles taken from the album. This was likely released in early spring 1985 before "Head Over Heels" was released as a single in Canada in June of that year. Also, it has a red "Digitally Mastered" triangle in the top right corner of the cover. Also, it is an opaque black cassette shell with a repeating pattern of horizontal lines around the edge.

“Track durations do not appear on the release for any 2014 mixes. Track durations for 2014 mixes taken directly from Blu-ray files. Track durations for original stereo mixes taken from booklet. All versions of "Shout" on this release have 0:06 of blank space before the track begins. Booklet duration for T9 does not take this into account, and is therefore is listed as being shorter (6:31) than it actually plays on the disc (6:40). The second part of track 7, "Broken (Live)," is not listed on packaging and not indexed as a separate track. From Steven Wilson's notes in the booklet: "Despite an extensive search, multi-track tapes could not be found for either section of "Broken," so the original stereo masters... were processed through Penteo stereo to surround up-mixer software in order to create pseudo surround versions. The 1984 stereo masters were also inserted into the 2014 stereo mix... for the same reason."”
