... I've just got the details.

The track is a studio version.

Townsend customers will be getting a new extra collectors print. If you've ordered elsewhere, you'll have to check with them.

The current version is deleted as of today and will be replaced with a new version on the next pressing.

The Live CD will be without any version of 'running for the red light' and reduced by 1 track.

So, anyone who has pre-ordered this item will now have an amazingly rare collectors edition which is limited to only a few hundred.

Thanks for the info...i still want it anyway, glutton for punishment that I am!

Nah seriously wasn't worried about a whether it had a live version of running for the red light, from what I remember of the Dublin show, in april 1996, I saw on that tour, they just played the studio track over the PA at the end when people were filing out as it had been released as a single around that time.

Lol, love the PR though "amazingly rare collectors edition", or put simply: Faulty.

Never mind.

The CDs play fine, they've been on here for the last two days. They're not faulty.

To be honest I think most people consider a falsely-billed duplicate studio track appearing in the middle of a live disc to be a fault rather than an 'ultra-rare' bonus.

Pedantically speaking it's a production error, not a fault. :p

Pedantically speaking, it definitely is NOT a manufacturing fault, I would agree.

But it definitely IS a product fault, in so far as it is an unattractive or unsatisfactory characteristic of the product.

But hell, by the sounds of it Red Light will have been dropped from the second disc altogether by the time I get round to picking this up!


:cool:

Maybe we can agree that literally speaking, its a major, careless ~~~~ up. ;)

Yeah, I'll go with that :))

It's a shame that in realising the mistake they've rectified it by removing the offending track and not completing the live disc with the correct live tracks that do exist.

Just in case there's any doubt, here's the reissued version courtesy of Amazon: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B005AMCOU2/ref=sr_1_album_2_rd?ie=UTF8&child=B005AMD1AY&qid=1310573166&sr=1-2

From the track lengths it appears they've simply dropped the offending Red Light track and not even bothered sorting the mixing out between AFL and MATLAF, the result of which will be a crowd fade out from AFL, followed by a cut into the start of MATLAF. A very poor effort all round on this one. :roll:
