Universal Music Group International's version of the Two Shoes album is an interesting one. To start, it was issued in a rather cool new kind of jewel case - a Super Jewel Box. It has nice, rounded edges, is thicker and more crack resistant (although mine has a fair crack on the front panel), and it's interior resembles that of Digipaks. It even has a hook that holds it shut, until you press on part of the plastic. The insert decoration of Universal's Two Shoes is also quite good: it's a cross between the AU's Virgin/EMI edition (the "regular" one), and the Indica Special Edition. The insert is also glossy.
This edition of Two Shoes also features the "North American Encores", in addition to the Two Shoes album. This means that 1001 and Miserere are left out, and that all of the lyrics and writing have been edited, cramped together, and rearranged to fit in the 6-page booklet.
I'm not sure how rare it is, but I've only ever seen it up on eBay once, when I bought it.

1. How To Explain - 3:49 - F Riebl
