“Despite some labels showing "Play To Win" is 3:30 it appears on some stampers/matrices it actually plays the 7:29 12" version. However this is not true of all pressings, and it appears to be very slight differences in the matrix on Side A that will identify. Some labels list the playing time as 7:29. Safest to check with your seller first as to the width of this track on the playing surface, compared with the previous track. If it's half the width then the label is correct, and not the listing above.”

Blu-ray authored at Type 40. Notes on the flat transfer of the original 1981 Mix: 'We're Going To Live For A Very Long Time' originally went on 'forever', on vinyl, thanks to a locked groove for the initial pressing. On the 1981 EQ'd production masters used to press the vinyl (and used for the flat transfer on this blu-ray release) this song simply comes to and end as the tape machine is stopped (or the tape runs out). With Martyn Ware's permission we have deliberately left it in place, only for the flat transfer. Additional audio stream info: Track 1-9 Dolby Atmos (Dolby TrueHD 7.1) 48 kHz / 24 Bit Track 1-9 DTS-HD MA 5.1 96 kHz / 24 Bit Track 10-18 LPCM 2.0 96 kHz / 24 Bit Track 10-18 LCPM 2.0 192 kHz / 24 Bit All tracks are newly mixed by David Kosten, except the '1981 Original Mix (Flat Transfer)'.”
