My MCA It's Hard has all the lyrics in it, though I think it may have been
one of the very early pressings, because the disc is all silver, not
silver with the middle bit clear, like they do now.  The only other CD I
have like that is my first run copy of with the beatles.  It sounds like
the second sheet may not have been stapled in, in which case you'd be
missing the last verse of Athena, and only have the last half of It's
Hard.

My booklet has 6 pages with white text on a black background, except the 
top 1" is grey instead of black, and all the lyrics to all the songs are 
there.

My question is: has anyone ever played Space Duel, and how did it compare 
to other games from that time like Galaxian and Centipede?  Looking at 
the controls it looks like it may have been similar to Asteroids or Omega 
Race, but with 2 player head to head.
