TWO CDs... space for plenty bonus tracks then?  And only £7 !

EMI Classics...  know nothing about them.

I'm guessing single CD versions of the 2fer.

... maybe even sans bonus tracks, and perhaps in "replica LP sleeves" (ie cheap card!) ...

... or the start of a mega re-issue prog that culminates in a box set of everything, with bonus tracks, plus a bonus disc of SMILE sessions...

... but delayed until 2016 while Al adds overdubs to Moondawg.

Budget line, most likely.

? Can't see the point. A single-CD two-fer going for € 6.99 in Holland being replaced by a double-CD set containing the same material? That's simply squandering money on behalf of the manufacturer.

Well, one can hope.

Odd indeed, seeing as some of the Today ! listed as mono are readily available in stereo these days.

I suspect it might have been cut & pasted from a previous release's description that wasn't itself accurate in the first place!
