Catalogue number with hyphen - LPS-1093, appears on back cover, the one without hyphen, LPS 1093, on centre labels - both written uppercase, the lowercase written catalogue number - lps-1093, appears on spine. Arranged by credit printed on back cover: "arrangements by the faction" and alternatively on centre labels: "Arranged by J. Cale, J. Young and Dids". Tracks A5 and B4 are sung in German. Track A5 title misspelt both on back cover: "das lied von einsanen madchens" and on centre label: "DAS LIED YON EINSAMEN MADCHENS", the original German title is: "Das Lied vom einsamen Mädchens" that, unfortunately, is also misspelt, correctly written in German it would be either: "Das Lied vom einsamen Mädchen" or "Das Lied des einsamen Mädchens" (= The Song of the Lonesome Girl). Similarly, track B4 title should be correctly written in German: "König" (or: "Koenig"). "Manufactured by Jugodisk Under Authorization, Trade Mark Owned by "BEGGARS BANQUET" Ltd." printed on back cover and centre labels - in fact, Jugodisk RELEASED this album under authorization of (licensed by) Beggars Banquet Records Ltd., the discs are completely manufactured by Jugoton (as stated on centre labels: "Proizveo - JUGOTON Zagreb"). Another disinformation appears on centre labels: "℗ 1986 - I" - correct ℗ year is 1985, the intention was to note the release year and issue, as correctly printed on back cover: "P 1986 – I", meaning: Production 1986 – first issue. "recorded and mixed at strongroom studio london march-april 1985" on back cover.
