Depeche Mode
Construction Time Again The 12" Singles

Single 2018 on Mute label
Electronic (Synth-pop, Experimental)

Sticker: NUMBERED LIMITED EDITION 6 x 12" Singles faithfully reproduced from original artwork and audio masters. Get The Balance Right! Everything Counts Love In Itself Original and Special Edition versions of each title Includes reproduction of original marketing poster & digital download code. 190758229711 All live tracks were recorded at Hammersmith Odeon on the 25th of October 1982 by Mobile One. The spines of the individual records use the following titles: Get The Balance Right! Get The Balance Right! • And Live Tracks Everything Counts Everything Counts • And Live Tracks Love In Itself•3 Love In Itself•2 • And Live Tracks All records play at 45 RPM, except for the "Live Sides" (B-side of records 2, 4 and 6) which play at 33 RPM. Track durations are taken from the back insert. Track 1-B2 and 2-B4, despite being the same song recorded at the same show, do not actually have the same duration - 1-B2, being the sole live track on that release, has some fade in with crowd noise, and fades out later, containing more of the intro of the following song at the show, Nothing To Fear, which can be found in its entirety as 4-B3. Love In Itself was remixed for the single release (hence the title Love In Itself • 2), but the original 7" version fades out before reaching the 4 minute mark, so 6-A (and to my knowledge, the first track on all previous editions of the "Special Edition" of Love In Itself) is a slightly longer version of the remix. Side B of record 1 only mentions credits for the studio track, but appears to refer to both tracks. Track 2-B1 also includes the concert intro Oberkorn (It's A Small Town), played as the first part of a medley with My Secret Garden. Track 4-A is the album version of Everything Counts instead of the 7" version (which fades out earlier to keep it under 4 minutes).
