The limited aspect is not the fact that it's a double cd. It's the
crappy card packaging (which doesn't hold the cd's in at all well)
that's limited.

a large amount of the stuff on this release is from before 'Emporer
Tomato Ketchup'. If you like Aluminum Tunes I would expect that you'd
enjoy other 'Lab stuff.

I know this was brought up before but what the hell does Warp have to
do with this release?
"At last a Stereolab release on Warp! Duophonic are of course
handling the release in the UK and Elektra in Japan and USA."
(from warp-net.com)
Does this mean that Warp are releasing it everywhere except Japan,
UK, & USA? I wouldn't call that a Warp release.
> Oh, and it's not got any DR design either.
> Looks pretty fantastic if I may say so.
It wouldn't be a DR design since it's a Duophonic release and they
never have DR designs.
