„So Far Away” – 5:12 (3:59)
„Money For Nothing” – 8:26 (7:04)
„Your Last Trick” – 6:33 (4:46)
„Why Worry” – 8:31 (5:22)
The album is released on two 180-gram discs, so three sides have two songs each, and only one side has three tracks. Clearly, no effort was spared to ensure high sound quality (I read somewhere that a maximum of 15 minutes per side is optimal for the highest possible quality). The discs actually sound very good without any noticeable distortion, perhaps a bit smoother than the original release.

My records have the following numbers on the board ends (I’m guessing the actual matrix numbers are the 7-digit number right after the logo):

Post Scriptum
The second interesting audiophile release is the 2015 Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab (MFSL) edition, reportedly made entirely from analog mastered material. The track versions included there have different running times, for example, „Why Worry” is 8:24 (BTB 8:31, 1st Press 5:22), and „So Far Away” is 5:05 (BTB 5:12, 1st Press 3:59). Unfortunately, this release is much rarer and harder to find, but I’m hunting for it, and as soon as I manage to find a decent copy, I’ll certainly add an article about it in the section devoted to this album.
