Comments:

An excellent art upgrade on the previous release, not that there was anything wrong with the previous 'Apple' release, this just has the feel of one of those 60's releases. The audio content is unaltered and either could be considered as core choices.

Whilst I have shown three different disc variations they are primarily the same , the first with a typo on the first track, the second correcting this and the final a disc that actually came with a Limited edition copy rather than a pre-release . The colour off all discs is red and the Pre- Limited Edition Release more truly reflects what the disc looks like. Unfortunately the laser printing makes copying the artwork very difficult, which also degrades when reduced for inclusion here.

It should also be noted that the final discs appear to be on an alternate make of CDR's, if you can identify any of the brands please drop me an email.

Original Comments:

Whilst technically an upgrade of the Doctor's early release New Years Day, this new title was NOT a free upgrade. If you are lucky enough to see the December 2007 update you will see that here are literally dozens of free upgrades with replacement discs and artwork for many titles. This along with the new source the good Doctor decided that his would NOT be a free upgrade.

This disc has now been sourced, with the exception of one track from a set of coloured vinyl Deccagone singles and is more complete, than any other release to date and is likely to retain core status until a new source is located. It will be interesting to see if the Purple Chick up date their I Hope We Passed The Audition which previously included the Doctor's New Years day release with the missing segments off the Deccagone singles and bonus material
