Great news about the mono release, as you say, better late than never!
Personally, I've always thought of this (and the Beat Direction release) as 12* EPs, simply due to the 'HI' catalogue number (rather than the 'LO' album sequence).
Anyhow, pre-ordered the mono mix. Quite limited too.
@OldMod67, one of us needs to add the original 1983 release (I got mine too in the summer of '83). With not having this pressing, I can't state in which order of the currently untitled tracks are The Young Idea / It's Getting Better.
