    Whats the difference between this release and the april 4 release?

      This album is yearning for a double vinyl reissue. Amnesiac is shorter but is double vinyl. Do it properly soon please.

        I concur with evowhite777. Superb sounding CD edition. I was lucky to find a mint copy recently. If you see one but it.

          **note**
          I don`t know why there are reviews "here" referring to vinyl copies of this wonderful album as this is CLEARLY for the U.K. cd version,which is what my review will be concerning,thank you.

          Most of you will know this LP by now but if you don`t and are considering a cd purchase just go to youtube & play it in full to ascertain whether it`s to your taste or not.
          Assuming it`s up your street or even possibly getting a cd especially used/2nd hand(like I did)will be your cheapest hard media way.
          Now if you`ve got a decent cd spinner you`ll be just fine but if you`ve got A REALLY GREAT cd Spinner - you WON`T need a vinyl record version of this! This u.k. cd version has ALL the texture,warmth and Dynamics you could wish for from a vinyl copy. And because it`s a cd you`ll be very unlucky to get a dud even with a used copy.
          Five stars all round v/good used copies can be bought for £3 or less if you`re v/lucky,thank you for reading this review.

            Does anybody else getting a copy of the cd in the mid 90s but the music on it was from a flamenco band or something? Randomly just thought about it and was wondering if it’s listed and if anybody knows what the music was?

              Just picked up a copy from my local shop and the runouts are stamped 233529E1/A and 233529E2/B. Is this a new version not listed above? The barcode is 634904078010 with XLLP780 and Made in NA. All the other info appears the same but the runout numbers are so different from all the other version for that barcode. Sounds great though.

                  Yea I have this new pressing too. Capitol label on the jacket with the Parlophone label on the LP and the Parlophone matrix. Not sure how it compares to the other pressings, but it sounds good to me. Has anybody made a page for this release?
