It's the most-improved remastering I have heard. The DED disc and the inclusion of "Speechless" (the so-called demo of "Two Grey Rooms ") made it worth while to me. In my mind, the instrumental isn't really a demo because it lacks words. It can't be a demo. I'm glad I bought the box set before the price doubled. Did it go out of print? I guess that's what keeps the price of boxed sets up -they go out of print and therefore become "rare". It was worthwhile at $45 when it was new; now, at $199 new on Amazon, I would hesitate.
