Based on the information on what has been corrected in the book from the first page, I can confirm it is the second edition.

Thank you.
I hope everyone who wants one eventually gets a 'corrected' box set.
The purpose of this thread was to highlight the errors and to hopefully assist in getting them corrected.
I think you can all give yourselves a pat on the back in that respect as it seems to have paid off, albeit somewhat partially.

Let us know once you've been able to check the audio so we can see if the tracks have been corrected as well as the booklet!
Cheers

4.) Wrong running order of FOE bonus tracks: "Whole House Rockin'" plays first, "Dear Mr. Murdoch" comes second.--->CORRECTED
11a) Happiness Credits - The graphic symbols on the original credits near each musician's name that
identified who played in each song are substituted in The Lot booklet by letters such as "R", "a", "v" and even "@"! --->CORRECTED
11b) And anyway they are useless because they should have been reported also after each song's lyric. --->NOT CORRECTED (no credits or symbols after each song)
11c) In the middle of the musicians names they put the copyright credits! --->NOT CORRECTED
BTW, Amazon UK now has in stock the corrected version:

Emma was responsible for this. Perhaps not directly but she hadn't been aware of the issue with amazon stock and the constant promises. She emailed me today and said shed been directly onto Universal and they had assured her they'd get stock to them this week.
She emailed me to tell me I could order from there.
She's a star and I think she deserves a LOT of credit for those of is who are now getting our amazon stock shipped.

I will update post #1 with any corrections posted as and when I see them.
Cockeye · Member since
The first thing I will do when I receive my box is go through the whole list and publish corrections still needed here.....

Just wondering... the nude mix of Murdoch... is that now actually a new mix or the 2011 version which is also on the singles disc? Cause I do not hear any differences at all between the two.
Am also curious if the extended version of Shove It is now on the singles disc.
Cockeye · Member since
I'm sure someone said Shove It had been corrected.....

2.) Incorrect spelling of 'Holocaust' --->CORRECTED (Rhys Thomas intro)
6.) The credits from 'Blue Rock' are directly taken from Discogs.com, including the (2) suffix for Peter Noone and the ANV-asteriks for Josh Macrae --->CORRECTED
7.) Wrong information - The book states Dear Mr Murdoch originally featured on the 1994 album "Electric Fire". --->CORRECTED
8.) In his foreword, final sentence, Rhys talks about a "cole" instead of "collection". --->CORRECTED (the wrong word was "colle" actually)
9.) In the track listing of the Cross-singles, last track (Shove it US), it is stated that the inclusion is a last minute "edition" instead of "addition". --->CORRECTED
10.) The DVD notes incorrectly state that both versions of the "Power to Love" video are included (or is one missing from the disc?) --->CORRECTED (there is reference to a second video existing, but the line about both videos being included is missing)

I think that the final result is a mistake anyway (Kruger left it off from the list but I think it should be in): the musicians on Happiness are credited for the whole album and not for the songs they really played on (like in the original album).
