Possibly a repress of the [url=http://www.discogs.com/release/871094]blue vinyl[/url] version. Differences between the two versions: - The sleeve here is in black & white with yellow lettering (plain black & white on the blue vinyl version). It folds like an envelope on the back, leaving a space on the middle between upper and lower half (regular side opening sleeve on the blue vinyl version). - Different center labels (see image). - The booklet here is in expanded form. The first 14 pages are identical to the (16-page) booklet of the blue vinyl version. Page 16 (page 15 on the other version) appears in both booklets and is a feature to Cabaret Voltaire (not included on the vinyl). On this booklet pages 15, 17 to 26 feature other local bands not included on the vinyl. The tracks are contineously numbered as 1 to 15 on both the sleeve and labels.
