I've got 3500 CDs to sell since you like them...so I can buy more vinyl.

But you're right. Brothers in Arms CD and album have different version
of Monday for Nothing, but then again, so does Canada since "faggot"
wasn't permitted on the record :)

Also, No Jacket Required by Phil Collins has a bonus track on the Cd,
"We Said Hello Goodbye" which I really like. I bet Phil had enough
material that he could have released a double album of quality work
around that time.
