Additional Information
Every collector should search for the original versions of this album. These limited editions are highly desirable. The LP was housed in a gatefold sleeve, which featured a large picture booklet, and the LP itself had embossed Simple Minds logos and Claddagh motif on the front of the sleeve. The cassette was originally a double cassette with pictures and information on both the pullouts.

A month later, the standard editions reached the shops. The LP was now housed in a plain gatefold sleeve (no embossed artwork, no booklet) and the cassette was now a single cassette (and therefore missing some pictures). The double CD issue remained unchanged (it was originally sold at a reduced price).

The piece of brass used to emboss the sleeves was given away as a prize on a Radio One (UK) competition.

A deluxe all-formats box set of the album was produced for promotional purposes.
