LPs 2 and 3 gather 25 demos from 1982 to 1984, opening with \"Lesson One,\" the autumn 1982 \"Take On Me\" demo, and running through the Naersnes and Rendezvous demos. LPs 4 and 5 collect single mixes, extended versions and B-sides, among them the 1984 and 1985 12-inch mixes of \"Take On Me\" and the B-sides \"Stop! And Make Your Mind Up\" and \"Driftwood.\" LP 6 holds the alternate mixes, from the video version of \"Take On Me\" to an early \"NYC\" mix of \"Dream Myself Alive.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide G opens with the original 1984 7-inch version of \"Take On Me.\" The song became a hit only on its third release, in 1985, after it was re-recorded and paired with a new video directed by Steve Barron.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe album's archival reissues began with a 2CD deluxe edition in 2010, followed in 2015 by a 4CD+DVD super deluxe for the 30th anniversary, reissued without the DVD in 2019. This vinyl set carries the four discs of audio; the DVD is not part of it. Paste Magazine included the box in its list of the 20 best box sets of 2023.
