Notes

Initial Italian pressing with wrong mastering: Studio version of "Digital" is included in the place of "Glass" on side A; while "Walked in line" and "Dead Souls" are switched on side B; and there are some different mixing of standard issue tracks. At the end of "Exercise One" Ian can be heard talking to the control room: "I still can't hear myself".

Sleeve and labels have the standard tracklist.

Gatefold sleeve with top opening.
Address on the rear sleeve is 'Base Record Via Castiglione' (instead of 'Via Collamarini' as on later pressings). However, this address does not guarantee a wrong master pressing. The wrong master pressing has matrix numbers FACT 40 1/FACT 40 2. On copies with corrected tracks it's FACT 1/FACT 2.

Sides C and D are recorded at Birmingham University 2/5/80.
Sister Ray - recorded at The Moonlight Club, London 2/4/80 (incorrectly listed as 3/4/80).
Track C6 is not listed on the sleeve nor label.

    My copy has the sleeve and labels as described in this entry. Address on the backside as described in this entry. No wrong mastering. Matrix run outs : flattened "M" on all four sides followed by respectively FACT 1, FACT 2, FACT 3 and FACT 4. Did I overlook something or isn't this version already present here?

      there are also some copies of the wrong master among those with the UK imported cloth
      cover

        Shouldn't the mis-print get its own separate entry? Also where is the mention of the flattened "M" in the matrix run-out of the mis-print edition?
