Quite cheap, as things go, from the German amazon site.

I got it some while ago, and also give it the thumbs up -- it's still
very much the high-end slick production from Powertrip, maybe not
quite as radio friendly (but, hey, I'm no expert there). I think it
migh be a bit more interesting than Powertrip, but it doesn't pull
anything that grabbed me as quite the monster riffing of tracks like
Dopes, nor the outrageous spacerock of tracks like Dinosaur Vacumn
... but not bad.  I thought it worked better live than on album --
live, it was clear that "Cry" was "Spine of God" for the year 2000,
though that's much less blatant on the studio version ;)

Mine claims to be the "UK Edition" whatever that means. The last two
tracks are "bonus", whatever that means :)

Cheers,
Carl, who now has one of his guitars back with him and feels pretty
good about that :)
