(Thanks Aca). Yes, the promo does have 12 tracks on the second CD. The promo has no artwork or running times so I can't comment on those but I have included the track times as given by my system, so that you can figure out what is missing. I remember that a number of people mentioned this problem at the time of the release and the mastering plant was blamed for the omission, if I remember correctly. CD 2 : 1. air liquide : 7.23 2. jammin unit : 6.14 3. andrew coleman : 7.00 4. mung : 8.03 5. sadie glutz : 6.52 6. gay biker : 6.08 7. friends, lovers & family : 4.18 8. dan gulberry : 5.07 9. freedom of sound : 5.50 10. bedouin ascent : 7.40 11. friend & elton : 9.08 12. spodfellas : 5.41 Bye, Wezz ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
