So, the designer of the inserts was naughty and put in a "secret coded message." See if you can figure it out. (Highly doubtful that either Numan or the producer knew about it.)

Get hold of this collection, and you can basically skip everything between Berserker and Sacrifice.

Another perfect landing

"Yes, Gary has done it again with this new compilation album. I have practically all of Gary's Albums both on Vinyl and on CD. I have been waiting to hear his new material mixed in with the old. I am amazed at this man's capability after so many years of amazing music. In my opinion, Gary Numan's greatest hits CD would be a CD containing every song ever written and performed by himself. I would recommend this album to anyone with a taste for Gary Numan."

"This CD represents an overview of fourteen years worth of Gary Numan. In that time, he had faded from guaranteed chart-act to a virtual outsider. It is also the time when he created some of his most interesting music. Criminally under-achieving singles like 'Berserker' and 'Call out the Dogs' are mixed the occasional outstanding album track, like 'Voix' and a re-working of 'Metal'. This album charts his flirtation with 'funk', and his present love affair with all things gothic (enjoy the darkness of 'Question of Faith' and 'Dominion Day' for example), and provides proof of his ability to write a heart-rending ballad ('Absolution'). This is a great cross-section of styles from all his ever-changing moods and is an excellent introduction to the metallic, synthesised world of Gary Numan."
