From the liner notes:
"This re-release [...] has some little differences from the formerly available CD version. The former CD of "X." was altered in sound [...] and some tracks were a bit shorter as on the original vinyl album.
The music used for this re-release was carefully transferred from original old analog mastertapes to digital format. [...] We have added a [...] version of "Ludwig", played and recorded live in concert in September 1978 during a show by KS who was accompanied by a classical orchestra of young people."
