Notes
Sleeve lists tracks as per original album plus bonus tracks "One September Monday" and "One February Friday". Track list given here is what the disc actually plays: "San José" and "Fury" are transposed; "Born To Run" is omitted altogether. Also the two bonus tracks are transposed.The track numbers on the burned cd are identical with the back cover (timings for each track). The track numbers printed on the CD are only 13. Finally 2 tracks are extension to the previous track.
1st pressingGatefold sleeve with printed inner sleeves. Some early copies feature artwork on the back cover of copulating monsters, with their genitalia on display. Later issues have fig-leaves added to the image.
Sleevenotes: IQ number one becomes no.four in Zang Tuum Tumb's fishy Action Series. "Ain't that peculiar."
"Record two's inner sleeve includes a mail order form for FGTH accessories, such as the "Sophisticated Virginia Woolf vest for the luxury of life" and the "Jean Genet boxer shorts", modelled by Paul Rutherford of the group Frankie Goes To Hollywood and Claudia Bruecken [sic] of the group Propaganda ...

This version was issued after Island was sold to Polygram, hence the longer catalog number. Unlike its predecessor, it has mostly the same tracks as the original LP release; i.e., it includes "Ferry" and "San Jose" and "(Tag)" (the orgasm discussion after "Two Tribes"), omits "Happy Hi" and "The Last Voice", has the short version of "Two Tribes", and has other minor sequencing and overdub differences. However, all copies with this catalog number have the wrong track list (the one from the first release) printed on the packaging. The actual tracks are shown here.
This variation came with packaging bearing the 422-824 052-2 catalog number on the disc, on the spine, and under the barcode.
