Too many re-issues. Remember the farce of the slightly different coloured yellow/green untitled I cds ?

Absolutely!

There's a European "Satan" (which Timbob has) which is grey

So, my FCD 163 also plays the Sasha mix, details:

1. Midnight (07:22) - aka Sasha Mix
2. Choice (05:34) - standard 12" mix
3. Analogue Test 90 (07:02)

CD is blue, and the catalogue numbers are FCD 163 / 869 515-2

It's "BIEM/STEMRA" which, according to this page means it was pressed in the Netherlands, but is a French CD!

More info here:

"If the word STEMRA BIEM is stamped on the label, the disk has been pressed in Holland, but sold in the French Market. With major hits, the French presses were not able to keep up with the demand, so Holland would press copies of the record and ship them to France to be sold. "
