There are some differences reg. the photos on the A Red Letter Day sleeve. The main front photo on the remix CD is not only larger but also not cropped while the front photo on the 4-track CD with b-sides is cropped.
The smaller photos of Neil on the inner sleeve/backside are similar but noticeably different while the pic of Chris is the same.

Indeed.

And did you notice the differences in the "I Wouldn't Normally Do This Kind Of Thing" sleeves (7inch vs 12inch, and cassette vs 12inch) ?
Not quite subtle but I guess somme people have missed.

Depends on one's definition of subtle.

:lol:
I'm actually a little concerned that maybe Volume wont get into this level of detail. Did Catalogue document all those differences in Always on my mind and Heart? Those are very minute details.
