Editions

Standard edition

Special edition

Since the limited edition quickly sold so well, it was decided to create a special edition with an unlimited run in which the album would be made of black vinyl instead of gold.[1]

Limited edition

Limited edition special numbers

There are numbers higher than 5,000, this was due the use of an 'unsecured' numbering method – a commonly used system. However, there are still only 5,000 copies.[2]

In 2005 Disney sold a test pressing on eBay.
