I guess they didn't feel they needed to with them being on the Join The Dots set. So they filled the deluxe release up with demos & other stuff

Tear out the pages with all the bad news

But I miss the 12" mix on cd too.

I hear you, I settled for the Unavailable Bsides on Minidisc for many years. Adding tracks was never a problem either.

In fact, the only 24bit Cure I currently have is a dub of this:

www.discogs.com/release/1234460-The-Cure-Standing-On-A-Beach-The-Singles-And-Unavailable-B-Sides

There is no better The Cure release IMO.. 😅

The Kyoto Song is probably my favourite here, but every track is top. The B-sides are some of my favourite TC tracks too. Fantastic subversive pop music.

With the exception of Screw I'm all for this album. I can even tolerate Six Different Ways in small doses.
But what really blew my mind is the entire opening sequence to Sinking.
I could get totally lost in there & not be in the least bit worried

I could spend a full day listening to Sinking in loop and not get tired of it. Such a masterpiece and one of my very favourite songs.

It's also one of the songs I enjoy the most singing and playing on guitar (I like to play a stripped down version of it with just an acoustic guitar).

The live version of Push impressed me greatly.

There's a button to share pictures. It points to a hosting site. I believe it is only visible if one uses the desktop version of this forum.

The Head is a fine album, enjoy your new purchase.

Presumably you refer to the DJ service remix of 'In-between days', get it here:

www.discogs.com/release/557645-The-Cure-Forbidden-Toxic-Medicine

The release is available on p2p networks for free, so don't pay too much for it should you decide to buy.

I have subsequently picked up the CDV releases of Close To Me and In-between days. Had to rip them at a mate's house as I no longer have any optical drives. 😂
