Background Information
This compilation album from 1992 was compiled by EMI records and featured a slightly different edit of the “Even Better Than the Real Thing” (The Perfecto Mix – Radio Edit). Some silence is removed at the start and end of the track, it fades out slightly earlier, and there’s an added second of ‘noise’ at the start of the track. Very minor changes between the Radio Edit and the version found here. The album is not a continuous mix, and each track is a standalone track that fades out and fades in between songs. The compilation was put together by Ashley Abram.
