Notes

Recorded at Hyde Street Studios and Mobius Music.

Mid '80s pressing entirely on Alternative Tentacles.
B side ends with a locked groove.
Comes with a 28-page 12"x12" black/white booklet, printed on semi-glossy paper.

This exact edition, without barcode, seems to have been pressed many times, until the repress with Plastic Surgery Disasters, however early pressings still included the same booklet as the original edition.

    does anyone know how this pressing is compared to the original? i want an og mix version without paying too much

      Side B ends with a reprise of 'The Voice Of Christmas Past' bit featuring Melisa Webber which continues down into the runout groove creating an infinite coda or cadence effect at the end of the piece, next to the label. You'll have to use a manual turntable to hear it through to completion.
