If it's a French pressing, can you list it under UK?

I have a misprint copy - silver colour missing from side a, also a copy of `tube station` withy silver missing from side b, but cannot find them listed anywhere, can any one help

This single was included as a bonus with the first US release of Sound Affects.

This is not a re-issue nor a mispress. It's the e.p. which was given away with the first 100,000 copies of Going Underground. It does not belong in the sleeve shown. Suggest listing is removed.

This is part of the Going Underground double pack and should be merged with that release.

There must be a date misspress on the actual single, because the Rainbow Theatre run was December 2nd-4th 1979 while the Nov 2nd/3rd dates were at The Marquee under the "John's boys" name. It's the same three live tracks as featured on 1993's Live Jam.

My copy has "Going Underground" on both sides even though the B side is labelled "Dreams of Children" This version is the closest to the copy I have.
