      CD releases


      Balin was released by American Beat on CD in 2008 and by EMI in 2009. Both editions featured the shorter, single version of "Hearts" rather than the longer album version.
      In March 2013 BGO reissued the album along with the follow-up release Lucky on one CD. Mastered by Andrew Thompson the BGO edition is the only CD version that features the full-length album version of "Hearts".
      In 2020, A&M alongside Universal Music Japan re-released the title as a part of the AOR Light Mellow 1000 series.
