  • Bad Export for You: The first two U.S. releases. The first featured a heavily altered tracklisting meant to conform with American album standards, similarly to how The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and The Who's early albums were treated by their American distributors. The other was the version on A Nice Pair, which substituted the live version of "Astronomy Domine" from Ummagumma, likely due to EMI's American division, Capitol Records, lacking access to the original master tapes. Again as with The Beatles, the original U.K. version was standardized worldwide for its first CD release in the '80s, meaning that American fans could finally get a proper version of the album outside of import copies. This has carried on through reissues to the present day.
