Reviews
- My copy has identical matrix etchings and everything is identical to this version except there is no mention of a poster. I cant find another version with the same catalogue and matrix numbers
- There is also another version with the same tracklist but in a black UK 12" sleeve (12" written on lower left of the sleeve). THis appears to be a reissue, without the poster of course. It also has the same matrix numbers EXCEPT omitting the last number.
So Side A is: W 9174T A//1▽ 420 V 1 2
And Side B is: W 9174 T B // 1▽ 420 V 1 1
I can provide photos if needed, but release needs adding.
