A question about P.H.U.Q.

[teldito]

Hi friends,i´m new here and i want to know something...my copy of p.h.u.q has 2 extra tracks (Inglorious and Schizophonic),is it some kind of special edition? it´s made in germany and the cat. number is 0630-10438-2 france ca851...thanks for any help!

Sounds like you have a japanese edition of the album to me as the only time Ive ever heard of those tracks being stuck on the end was when i was looking through stuff about japenese editions of Wildhearts releases

[teldito]

on the official Wildhearts site says that the japanese edition of p.h.u.q has If life is like a lovebank...and Do the channel bop at the end of the record...maybe my copy is a special european edition...thanks anyway

What format is it ?.I`ve got a tape of PHUQ with inglorious and schitzophonic as bonus tracks at the end of side two,the bar code number on mine is 0630 10677-4 France CA491,and it is also made in germany.I also have a german promo copy of the c.d,with the number 0630 10404-2,but this does not have any bonus tracks.And the jap c.d. does indeed have, if life is like a love bank i want an overdraft and do the channel bop,as bonus tracks.

[teldito]

it´s a cd,it seems that it´s the same as your tape,maybe a special german edition?

[idiottoast]

Yeah,i think it must be.Germany has had a couple of exclusive WiLDHEART releases,and slightly different versions of brittish and jap stuff.

talking PHUQ -
does anyone know how much a Japanese, (sealed CD with obi strip) is worth these days?

[idiottoast]

Esprit have got tokyo suits me( 2c.d.) for £50,and anthem the singles at £40,both still sealed.They`re usually a bit steep with thier prices tho.I`ve just recently paid £19 for a sealed u.k edition of FFL with the eliptical(?)cover,from finland.The main reason i bought it tho was because the front of case was not cracked or broken,like so many of them seem to be,including the copy i already had.

Apart from the Top Of the World EP kinda thing I was not aware of any special editions released over here. The other TWMBD era stuff on Punk&Drunk is just the same as the UK versions.

I've certainly never seen that edition of phuq, but then since I bought it in '95, I haven't exactly been on the lookout. Where did you get it? And are the bonus tracks listed on the back.

......mmmmm

I'd like to see some pictures of this.

My tape copy of PHUQ has got the bonus tracks listed on the back,complete with the running times of the songs.I`m pretty sure that the vinyl version of coupled with is a german only release,mine is on punk `n` drunk.I agree with you that the rest of the TWMBD p `n` d releases are exactly the same as the u.k. releases,and even if you`re a completist you`d have a hard time to justify having them.Interestingly the p `n` d c.d. versions also came in a double pack with a cadboard sleeve holding them together, a`la SG5 BLM on infernal.Suckerpunch and i wanna go where the people go,non pasport pack, c.d.singles also got a german release.But again,they are identical to the u.k. versions.

Nearly forgot,i got my tape from a second hand record shop in chester called grey and pink.I found it quite by accident,i`ve not seen another one and did`nt know that there was a c.d version of the same until this thread was started.
