77, MORE SONGS ABOUT BUILDINGS AND FOOD, FEAR OF MUSIC, REMAIN IN LIGHT, SPEAKING IN TONGUES, LITTLE CREATURES, TRUE STORIES and NAKED have just been released in the Dual Disc format with an SRP of $18.98 each. The CD side of each DualDisc contains the original album completely remastered, plus bonus tracks. The DVD side contains the original album mixed in 5.1 Surround playable on all DVD players and drives, plus concert music videos, concert performances and image galleries.
