Notes
Limited edition Quiex II pressing (vinyl is translucent black, when held up to bright light it looks orange-brown and allows light through.)Red label edition with "-AR" matrix. Deadwax inscriptions are exactly the same as The Art Of Noise - (Who's Afraid Of?) The Art Of Noise (and similar to The Art Of Noise - (Who's Afraid Of?) The Art Of Noise, but with red labels.)
STERLING is stamped in the deadwax on both sides; however, according to denotations for Specialty Records Corporation, this version was mastered at Specialty Records Corporation, pressed by Allied Record Company, and lacquer cut at Sheffield Lab Matrix.
On this release, "Snapshot" fades out after a minute and doesn't stop suddenly.
Durations printed on labels are shown here, and are very close to actual durations, except A4, which is actually slightly over 5:36, yet is listed as 5:41.
