Since I'll probably have to buy some PSB product to see the Boys @ next Thursday's LA signing, I figure I'd pick up the US edition of PopArt - to support the Boys with domestic sales but also because I recall an earlier thread that says there are some differences between the 2.
Can someone please summarize the differences for me?

Thanks

I don't recall, but I will probably buy Concrete and Catalogue at the signing.

Presumably the wrong tracks have been corrected...

Yeah, Heart is the actual Discography/single mix. They fixed I wouldn't normally do this kind of thing, and the early fade on Being Boring and late fade on West End Girls doesn't occur. Looks like the used the single mixes for those also. Finally, the Flamboyant mix is the single mix, and not the one found on the UK PopArt.

Might import that then. That's excellent.

Where's the best place to get this from? Link would be good.

I did a search of ebay for US PopArt.

Thanks, Debesh. I feel better about picking up the US version now when I go to the signing on Thursday.

Do it brutha. I picked up the US PopArt when it released, and a second one during the signings just to have it signed. I figure the copy I got signed, I'll never play.

Which version of DJ Culture is it? The original 7"/Discography version or the UKPopArt version with the later fade?

I wish the US Pop Art had the 7" of Suburbia (as opposed to the video edit) and Was It Worth It? but they've already done some good things to it, so I'm not going to complain.

Retro.

Interesting, I totally forgot about the late fade for DJ Culture on the UK PopArt. Then again, I don't listen to that track very often. I'll have to take a listen and get back to you on that. Although if its like the others, they probably remastered the actual single mix.
