Notes

This is a test CDr issued by BMG in the UK, April 2004. It comes in a single plastic sleeve with track listings.

As identified with the first pressing of the main retail release, there are errors with versions of 'Life in Tokyo', as follows:

Track 13: Life in Tokyo (Part 1). This is not the 1979 version but the 'Special Remix' edition released in October 1982: Life In Tokyo.
Track 14: Life in Tokyo (12"). This is not the 1979 12" version but the 'remix' which appeared on the 'Special Edition' cassette, Assemblage [Special Edition Double Play] & Japanese vinyl, Assemblage. It is believed it was mixed by Hansa in 1981.
Track 15: Life in Tokyo ('82 Remix). This is not the 1982 12" Remix version but the original 12" Long version released in 1979: Life In Tokyo

It excludes the 2 bonus videos which accompanied the main release: Assemblage℗ 9/1981 Hansa Productions Ltd.
