Notes:

This is the first 1982 UK reissue on Fame label.

For this reissue the new set of masters A-5/B-4 were cut for both A and B side. However, the newly cutted A-5 master quite soon was replaced by a new one A-7 (apparently A-6 was scrapped) and therefore the main pressing  was released mostly having A-7 / B-4 combination.

The main difference from the previous issues:
1) Non laminated single (not gatefold) sleeve
2) 'Fame' tan labels with the grid design;
3) Large 'Fame' logo in red on top of the label
4) Text around the bottom label edge in red ink starts at 10 o'clock and says:
'All rights of the producer and of 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.';
5) Black boxed 'EMI' logo on bottom.
6) Runouts: A-5 HTM / B-4 or A-7 HTM / B-4;

Other main identifiers:
- Inner sleeve:
a) EMI inner sleeve with 'Care Of Your Record' box high centre, 'Thinking of giving someone a record as a gift?' bubble mid centre, 'Important Notice' box in low centre, 'Made In Great Britain' above 'Patent Nos. 1125555' and with date code near the bottom (since about 1980 to 1982)
b) plain EMI inner sleeve with 'PATENT Nos. 1,125,555'  and 'MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN' near the bottom (with or without the date code);
