When approached about contributing to this reissue in 2021, Bernard decided that he wanted to re record all the vocals, for both the album and the B sides. He has also added the occasional guitar overdub . The new vocals can be found on CD2 and 3. CD4 features some gems from Bernard's own archives : demos, a rehearsal, solo live tracks, and a selection of fascinating outtakes from the string sessions.
The 28 page book is extensively annotated by Bernard himself, and also contains all the lyrics plus photos from Bernard's own collection plus unpublished recording session photos from photographer Jill Furmanovsky.
