This version of Kilimanjaro seems to be a very special anomalous mistake. It appears to be a collection of studio / monitor mixes that somehow made it onto CD - who knows how, maybe the wrong masters were sent out to Skyclad.
As far as I can tell every track is a slightly different mix from the versions that made it to the original vinyl. Most of the mixes on this CD are bass guitar heavy, and some mix differences are more obvious than others - extra guitar textures on some songs for example.
There are slight volume changes on three tracks which suggests that someone was riding the desk faders while playing out to a master tape, which is why I think these were test mixes before the final production masters were made.
If you like Kilimanjaro, and especially the bass lines, I would recommend this CD. The mixing differences are subtle but worth a listen, and this version of Suffocate is excellent (different version to that on Everybody Wants To Shag), as is the alternative start to Reward. -
This is the only appearance on CD of the US promo 12" remix of "Reward". This mix has an entirely different intro to the UK 7" and lp and Peel versions. It has a very different feel, more subdued horns, diff keyboard sounds and an entirely different and more prominent guitar part. It originally appeared on the US promo 12" of "When I Dream". https://youtu.be/ycvZXgcUrWY
