This contains a different version (not just a different mix) edited together/performed specifically for the US market. This version omits Tony Banks' swelling organ intro, then features a differently mixed instrumental track and alternate vocal from Peter Gabriel. Instead of the prog 'big finish' of the album version, a completely new ending was performed and added/edited in. It features Gabriel singing something like "on the road you're on" over to a fade (apparently this bit was part of another piece they had in the repertoire dating back to 1970 [in rehearsal anyway]).
