"For years, many of us Bejar-heads have drained our wallets chasing rare copies of the original pressings of these two albums, but that time is now passed. Nominal Records has put together this beautiful reissue - Bejar and JC/DC did a totally new mix for Thief (originally mixed in mono), and both albums have been freshly remastered. This is a 2xLP set, with both albums occupying opposite sides of a single lovely 'tip-on' gatefold jacket. Limited edition of 1026 copies." - www.catbirdseat.org
