One more thing new to the album’s packaging are these short, English liner notes from Yoko Shimomura, which read as follows: For importers, this image will serve as another poignant reminder that Square Enix is crazy for not bringing this game to the US. The new booklet is just a foldout, but it does have a really nifty screenshot-based timeline / sequence of events for the seven characters (nothing for the big crazy ending, though!). The original had an 11-page booklet with great, detailed character art for each of the main characters in the game. On the minus side, the packaging for this reprint is rather sparse compared to the original. Ah well, y’know what they say about staring at gift horses… There would’ve been just enough room on the disc for it.

Of course, I would’ve also appreciated getting the vocal version of GO! GO! Buriki King!! that was released as a special bonus CD to Japanese eSTORE customers back in March. These are great tracks, and I’m happy to have them.

They were originally found on the super-rare strategy guide 8cm CD. On the plus side, Square Enix tacked on two bonus tracks. In keeping with current naming convention, and to differentiate it from the first print, Square Enix named this album an “Original Soundtrack” instead of “ Original Sound Version.” The difference between the two albums? There are a few, some good and some bad. In any case, we’re all in luck, as the soundtrack for this Super Famicom cult classic has finally been reprinted (first print since 1994!). One cannot help but wonder if a remake or port is on the horizon… Almost all of the “SQ” arrange albums feature a track off of LIVE A LIVE, and there are two tracks from the game featured on the fantastic Shimomura orchestra album drammatica.

34.There’s been a lot of interest in LIVE A LIVE, at least among Square Enix’s current music (and music marketing) team.
