The next chapter in the ENZyclopedia reissue series celebrates 50 years since Split Enz travelled to London to record Second Thoughts with Roxy Musics Phil Manzanera in the producers chair

A new definitive 2LP reissue pairs the original 1976 mix, remastered from the original tapes, with a companion LP Wide Angle Enz, a treasure trove of live recordings and alternate mixes, including a previously unreleased archival rough mix of 129 (Matinee Idyll) which is exclusive to this release.

Presented in the distinctive Australia/New Zealand sleeve featuring John Prews band portrait, the album concludes with the hypnotic locked-groove of Mental Notes, mirroring the international versions striking finale.

Pressed on two 140g vinyl, housed in a wide-spine sleeve with printed inner bags. Remastered from the original tapes by Phil Kinrade and overseen by Eddie Rayner, with lacquers cut by Harry Rudkins at AIR Studios.
