Notes

Reissue of vinyl & cassette released initially in the UK, January 1980. Unlike the original release, this vinyl comes in a single sleeve and not a gatefold. This version is very similar to two other releases; however, the circular copyright information on the labels is different:

This submission: UNAUTHORISED COPYING, HIRING, RENTING etc. Circular copyright information, in red
Quiet Life: UNAUTHORISED PUBLIC PERFORMANCE etc. Circular copyright information, in red

HANSA [logo]
℗ © 1979 Ariola Eurodisc Ltd.,

Recorded at Air Studios, London, except for All Tomorrows Parties recorded at DJM Studios, London.

This release has 'STEREO" on the spine, whereas a later repressed edition doesn't. The first reissues have a lighter sleeve and a red Japan logo. The later repressed edition has slightly different artwork: Quiet Life, the image is darker and grainier, and the Japan logo is almost pink.

[ERRATUM]:
Track B2 All Tomorrows Parties is printed correctly on the sleeve; however, on the label, it is printed incorrectly as All Tomorrow's Parties
