This CD seems to have less solid paint that usual. My copy the paint has been damaged and the black bars on the CD can be seen to be incomplete \ scratched.

This Dutch pressed CD has some slightly different track splits to other versions.

Track 2,3,4 are offset when compared to other editions.

Track two is cut at 4:08 before "Arabs with knifes at the foot of the bed". Other editions add this onto the end of Running Shoes. (which seems wrong)
Track three therefore fits the title and starts with "Arabs with knifes at the foot of the bed" and ends with finishing the bottle of wine and "goodnight"
Track four start with the guitar solo whereas other editions have this on the end of track three.

These errors seem to trace back to the Japanese pressing?

This pressing matches the words in the booklet...

(I am tweaking these notes while I investigate.... I'll be back)
