The Soft Bulletin: 5.1 (mispress)

~ Release by The Flaming Lips (see all versions of this release, 13 available)

Annotation

This is the first edition of this album which was packaged with a mispressed CD. The CD has the correct artwork and catalog number for this newly remixed version, but it was pressed from a master of the original CD album. The tracklist printed on the case is therefore incorrect for this CD.

This is actually an HDCD. Although it is not noted on the disc or the packaging, it registers as an HDCD when placed in a player that is able to decode it.

Purchasers were able to request a free replacement disc.
