Now here`s something cool, instead of the etching saying `PORKY PRIMY CUT` on side 1 of my copy, it says:

`SPECIAL PRESSING NO. 003 RING 434 32 32 ASK FOR MOIRA FOR YOUR PRIZE :)`

Anyone in the UK feel like trying the number? I bought this used in Australia, I hope the original owner noticed the etching too! :D

The "Detectives" extra track on this release has been said to be a remix. Sounds like the regular version speeded up to me.

There is a 1978 US release with a different sleeve picture and, if I remember correctly, one different track - Watching The Detectives. Can anyone verify?
The album with the bonus single was stickered "Free album with this single".
Pics found and uploaded.
Hey and how about this for many details: http://www.elviscostello.info/disc/official/tym/tym_info_a01.htm
Rated 5/5

The sleeve of my copy looks like the image of this submission.
It looks somewhat misprinted, or is this intended?

Master Release
