Package: Package is the most disappointing thing in all release. Seems like it was done in a hurry to be in time for the 25 anniversary. Nice cover and under CD photo could not save the inside stuff, however RCA has it's own strategy. The booklet is similar to "An Afternoon In The Garden", but later is much more better done.
Bonus songs: The fact that they are finally included is awesome, but the question remains: "Why was not it done before?"
