In Praise of Learning CD edition question
I admit I am a bit confused on the CD releases of this album....does the original mix version omit the 6th track "Lovers of Gold"? Is the version to get the 5 track version? Which is the better mix?
CONFUSED.
Thx.

The original mix CD does omit "Lovers of Gold." It is also the superior mix, if only because the remix is slathered in reverb. For me the album is important enough that both versions are essential.

To answer the easy part of your question first, "Lovers Of Gold" is a bonus track on the 1991 CD reissue, so the original mix version doesn't "omit" anything.
As regards the mix, the 1991 CD is a remix. I think that this remix first surfaced on the 1986 LP reissue on the Broadcast label.
I believe that the master tapes of the original stereo mix that first appeared on Virgin are lost, so the "Original Mix" CD was mastered from clean vinyl and released in 2000.
