Notes

℗ 1976 EMI Records Ltd.
Made in Gt. Britain

This issue correctly credits Dave Goodman on the B side.

There are some different colouring of the label on this. Darker like Anarchy In The U.K. or lighter, more orange. Mixed in different variations.
Some copies came with a post manufacture 'Factory Sample' sticker.

[The misprinted version, Anarchy In The U.K., the first 5000 copies, came in a plain black sleeve and mis-credits Chris Thomas as producer of 'I Wanna Be Me'.]

    I'd love to know how many of these were pressed, they are literally everywhere to be found on Discogs, eBay etc. Hardly a rare record on that basis.
    I've heard rumours that every Woolworths and Hmv shops had a box of 100 or so given them prior to the release date that never happened because the band were dropped. Unlimited supply?

      Got mine the first week it came out at the original Virgin store in Leeds, anyone remember that small little shop ?
      It's got the correct credits and the red EMI standard sleeve, not the black one.
      Still own it today alongside picture sleeve versions of GSTQ and Pretty Vacant plus an early press of Never Mind, 12 track version which came with a stapled photocopied set of lyrics written out by God knows who ? John, maybe, I dunno? Looks like it was meant as some promo offering ? Anyone come across this lyric sheet insert, it's very diy in aesthetics. Which is exactly the perfect look of course, right !
      All of them are vg+ condition and would sell if anyone is interested. I need to reduce my record collection as I'm running out of space soon.
      Just pm me if interested ?

        Mine came in the original black sleeve. Goodman credit on the b-side.
