"Music From the Edge of Heaven" was released only in Japan (1985) and the US 
(1986).  In the rest of the world, the final Wham! album was titled "The Final". 
 It was the swansong for the duo's succesful career, which began in 1984.  The 
"Twelve Inch Mixes" was the first proper compilation without new tracks from the 
band.  Those two albums contain not only new tracks (for the era), but some live 
tracks and remixes, not available either on Fantastic! or Make it Big.

I'd like to call your attention on "A Different Corner", which contains an 
instrumental intro not found on the regular 3:57 version found on "The Final" 
CD, which I never heard anywhere else but on the vinyl version of this album.

You'll probably notice there are two versions of "I'm Your Man [Extended 
Simulation]", with different running times.  On Wikipedia you can find some text 
regarding this:

"An extended mix of the song was released on Wham!'s 1986 album Music from the 
Edge of Heaven (the U.S. version of their final album The Final). Added to the 
song are tape effects (including several repeating words and phrases), a bass 
solo at the halfway mark, and a segment based on Andrew Ridgeley's race car 
driving hobby: an announcer saying, "He's brave! He's tough! Mr. Ridgeley, do 
your stuff!", racing cars zooming past, the sounds of a car crashing, maniacal 
laughing from Ridgeley, and Ridgeley saying "Now where's the bar?" in a 
high-pitched voice. Furthermore, the 12-inch version (see below) features even 
more new material added, with dialogue between a man and a woman (really Michael 
and Ridgeley with their voices altered), with the man trying to persuade the 
woman in a "magic car", replacing an entire verse in the song."

In order to keep the very same structure than on the regular CDs, I've uploaded 
them using a .bin/.cue Image profile.  You can mount those images on Daemon 
Tools, Alcohol 120%, PowerISO, Ultra ISO, and read it as a regular CD, or burn 
them with your regular burning software (Nero, Alcohol 120%, good old CDRWin 
should work fine).

Feel free to reencode and upload again using any codec you want, but credit 
would be appreciated.
