The Multiformatting isn't as bad as the mid 80's though, 6-7 formats for a single wasn't unusual. Expensive as it was back then, it was fun collecting ;-) Or should I say Kollecting, since I was still a kollector back then.

I'm still trying to catch up with some of the multiformatting that Mercury/Phonogram perpetrated with 'The Mission' and 'All About Eve'

Isee the singles are keeping Oasis at number 3. Does that mean
Hawkwind are bigger than the Beatles now?
<rant>
Mind you, am I the only one a bit sad to see Hawkwind buying into the
game of releasing multiple versions of the same thing? I know, I
know, I'm an old fogie who doesn't get it and still thinks EPs were a
neat idea. At least there's only two versions and the seem to have
different "A Sides," unlike the umpteen differently mixed "B Sides"
and the obligatory DVD single that all the other entries in the chart
seem to have!
