Description

Black label with silver print and white Parlophone and EMI logos; this has subtle variations with each pressing. This label design from 1980-1984. The perimeter rim text reads: “All Rights Of The Producer And The Owner Of The Recorded Work Reserved · Unauthorised Public Performance, Broadcasting, Copying And Hiring Of This Record Prohibited · Manufactured In The UK By EMI Records Limited.” A later edition (1984-87) has rearranged part of the text: Unauthorised Copying, Hiring, Renting, Public Performance And Broadcasting Of This Record Prohibited · Laminated-front non-flipback sleeve [the sleeve is laminated on the front and does not have the ‘Flipback’ foldover onto the reverse seen in previous pressings; subsequent pressings have non-laminated sleeves that later still include a barcode]. The matrix numbers on the label remained constant but those in the run-out may have additional [Mothers/Stampers] numbers changing with each master plate. Other 2-box pressings: 1973: [r2212819] 1976: [r2433752]
