Think Tank

~ Release by Blur (see all versions of this release, 32 available)

Annotation

"Think Tank" Special Edition collects together b-sides from the "Out of Time", "Crazy Beat" and "Good Song" singles, which include a Marrakech Mix of "Money Makes Me Crazy" and an alternative version of "Me, White Noise" (which was a hidden track on the original release). Completing the "Think Tank" Special Edition are the track "Some Glad Morning" (only previously available as a Fan Club Single), an acoustic mix of "Don't Be", a demo version of "Sweet Song" and a previously unreleased five track live XFM session from October 2003.
The "Think Tank" Special Edition is housed in a deluxe lift-off lid box with four exclusive Blur artwork postcards and an expanded booklet that includes previously unseen photos and liner notes based on a brand new interview with all the band members.

FIXME: Possibly a "worldwide" release, i.e. Europe + North America.
