Adam and the Ants debut album repackaged in 1995 to include the original album tracks plus the Do it singles.
The mix of Zerox is from the 1981 release rather than the original 1979 version, details of which can be read here.
The versions of Cartrouble Parts 1 & 2 are not the original album versions, but the later 1980 Chris Hughes remixes
Initial copies of the Rewind CD featured the Chris Hughes produced Ant/Marco 7" single version of Cartrouble rather than the credited Cartrouble Parts 1 & 2.
The way to differentiate these pressings is by looking at the CD itself and by the matrix number on the inner part of the reverse side of the disc, the original mis-press has the following code:
01-480521-10 13 A3 Sony Music IFPI L553
The subsequent reissue with the correct songs had the following matrix number:
S0148052110-0101 35 A1 Sony Music IFPI L555

The later pressings with Cartrouble Parts 1 & 2 has the following correct spelling thanks:
