Notes

This is the second variant of MCAD-37002. This time around, the back cover art has been replaced with the generic pink gradient background seen on MCA releases in the 1986-87 time frame. The booklet has been chopped down to plain text with song titles and credits. This flavor would've replaced the full artwork version in only a matter of months and, only a matter of months later, the Compact Disc/Compact Price version would replace this one.

As with most of the early MCA releases that were 'chopped down' in this style, the DIDX number was retained in the artwork and on the disc but this does not indicate a DADC pressing. Many of these discs (including this one) are JVC pressings.

This disc was manufactured in Japan and is in a smooth-sided jewel case.
