    All the bonus tracks available on this Munster Records-issued vinyl repress of a great album are available on CD. The tracks Metro Poly Train, Oming In and Mirrors of Light can be found on Blake's Lighthouse Anthology, while Surf and the two Synthese Intemporells are available on Esoteric's Crystal Machine CD.

      I like this reissue but I think I would love it if the lock groove like the one on the original release was included. But! I do think this 2 disc reissue from Monster Records is really very nice. Not only was the audio presentation good and clear with all the anticipated right highs, mids and lows, the added bonus tracks actually enhanced the overall music experience and didn’t feel tacked on or distracting. Also the cover is a well made reproduction that comes with a printed interview with the artist Tim Blake. All in all... Well done!

        ...does anyone know if this edition preserves the lock-groove that's on the original pressing?
