Description
RARE original recording (without Gillian Gilbert) LIMITED EDITION.
This is the first edition 12" sleeve with gold typography on a forest green background -- a limited edition pressing of only 25,000 records (until 17 July 1981).
(After Gillian Gilbert joined the band, it was decided to re-record the song with her on guitar. It was then re-released in September 1981. This time the cover had a cream background with a light blue stripe and black type. This second version was included on all later compilations, e.g. Substance 1987.)
The B-side track "In A Lonely Place" is the same version on all the original pressings (both green and cream/blue editions.) However, another version of the track circulates on some later pressings: the digital thunderclaps occur at different times. The original mix has a digital thunderclap at 3:20 and again at 5:15. Neither of these are present on the alternate mix, which DOES have multiple thunderclaps between 5:30 and 6:15 which are not present on the original mix.
Matrix / Runout (Run-out side A, etched, stamped): FAC 33 A1 EG WATCHING LOVE GROW - FOREVER TOWNHOUSE
- Matrix / Runout (Run-out side B, etched, stamped): FAC 33 B1 EG HOW I WISH WE WERE HERE WITH YOU NOW TOWNHOUSE
- Disc is in superb condition. Cover has some very minor folding/dog-earing, tape residue, and writing impressions, but still looks very good overall.
