There's a booklet inside that goes into details about this release - I
only scanned through it quickly but basically they've taken two tracks
out (because they are more related to Chronicle of the Black Sword) and
included everything else from Indep. 1 & 2 although all the tracks have
been completely re-ordered.   Haven't had a chance to see if the tracks
have been "cleaned up" in any way so I've no idea about this.
Hopefully not.

"Frenchy" is involved in Cherry Red records and Flicknife I think?
So it'll be an official re-issue.

cheers
