    I have a version of this release, i think, with matrix/run-out: R/S Alsdorf 58175 A4 X and R/S Alsdorf 58175 B3 and GB etched. The label are different and don't indicate if its Side 1 or Side 2, have no STEREO printed and have no rights society listed on the label. Or maybe it´s another release? Anyone else familiar with this different label?

      This German pressing is fantastic. Get a nice clean one, for not much money and enjoy. The German ones were sold in the UK, as WB used their plant in to supplement the UK market throughout the 80s and into the 90s.
