Scratch My Back Single cd or 2 cd Deluxe Version?

For those trying to decide which version to buy here's my take. The deluxe version has a second cd and heving listened to the four tracks I would comment:

Track 1: The Book of Love I really could not discern any major difference between this version and the main cd. Anyone else notice anything? Adds little to the value of the deluxe version. + (out of 5)

Track 2: My Body Is A Cage Choir voices are a lot more pronounced and there is a little more distortion (feedback?) in the orchestral arrangement. I prefer this version over the main cd version. +++++ (out of 5)

Track3: Waterloo Sunset As this is one of my favorite tunes this version of it makes this a must buy deluxe version. He does a wonderful version, vocally close to the original Kinks track but of course with the London Scratch Orchestra. +++++ (out of 5)

Track 4. Heroes Orchestra seems a little bit more subdued on this version. Prefer main cd version over this one. +++ (out of 5)

Overall I would highly recommend throwing the extra couple bucks in to purchase the 2 cd deluxe version over the single cd.
