Drums/Singing from "Mt. Eerie" CD/Vinyl?

[Rocketships.]

From the notes on the old MEPS site:

"These did exactly what they said: The singing and drumming isolated from tracks on the Mount Eerie album. However, "Drums" includes a new track - 'the Big Black Cloud' and "Singing" has "vi. Universe Conclusion". Subtle and obvious differences can be spotted between the EPs and the actual album all over."

I've only heard the CD version of each so I'm curious the other differences? The album art is different, and it appears that the CD release has an extra track for each? I only have the MP3s off What.cd and they are all labeled Part I - Part VII, which is what iTunes has them labeled as well. Are these the correct names or is it more like Samba (120 BPM) (for Drums)/the Sun (Singing) like it appears for the vinyl?

I think that's referring to differences between Drums from Mount Eerie and Mount Eerie itself, not between the CD/vinyl issues of Drums from Mount Eerie.

I modified my first post a tad to include the full quote and include the same questions for the singing release. Mostly just wondering what the correct titles for the CD releases are for both?

I understand there are differences in the actual sound/levels/mixing, but there is a difference between the two releases with the extra tracks.

Sorta related, so I thought I'd post it here:

Drums from Mount Eerie test press could be yours for only $849?!?!?!?!?!

Look out everyone, there's also a "best offer" option, so I offered $1.32 for it

Yeah it was, those dicks.

Does anyone know who won the Adrian Orange 7" test that was auctioned? I would have bid, but I looked at marriage site and thought there were auctioning 2 copies. It sold for like 13 bucks. Some lucky person out there won it.
