Matrix at 6 O'Clock? ? ? I've heard everything now.

Anyone think this single is loud as balls? Sounds louder than 2000s loudness wars albums.

referencing Walking On The Moon (7", 45 RPM, Single, Alternate Sleeve) AMS 7494

My copy is "made in " as etched in the run-outs. There are two UK releases pressed in , but none of these two matches exactly.

Run-outs:
A: AMS-7494-A MADE IN tone [AREACEM logo]
B: AMS-7494-B MADE IN

Label and sleeve both are the same as for this release: https://discogs.cinepelis.org/de/The-Police-Walking-On-The-Moon/release/396575

Anyone has an idea what I got here?

Mine came with an Alfa sleeve which has a large blue circle each side.

referencing Walking On The Moon (7", 45 RPM, Single) AMS 7494

Singles by The Police are a minefield - here I have a copy of this single but with "AMS 7494 A8*" and "AMS 7494 B8*" in the run-outs, just slightly off-centre at the six o'clock position. It isn't an Irish pressing, I don't think; as the copyright text on mine is in the "northern hemisphere" of the label.

Can anyone help me out with which version I have?
