mannyg 23rd May 2024		12" Single Sabrina - All Of Me (The Boy O Boy Mix) (1988)	The Single Version doesn't actually appear on the B=Side, just the instrumental version.
mannyg 19th May 2024		12" Single Commodores - Nightshift (1985)	Another version exists with the same Cat No. with the original version of Nightshift on the A Side.
mannyg 28th Feb 2018		12" Single Ultravox - All Stood Still (1981)	Hilariously, just noticed that the pictures of the band members on the reverse are stickers somebody has stuck on themselves! Looks very authentic though they look a bit wonky now you mention it...
mannyg 26th Feb 2018		12" Single Talking Heads - Road To Nowhere (1985)	An alternative pressing comes with plum coloured labels.
mannyg 22nd Feb 2018		12" Single Madness - The Sun And The Rain (1983)	Though uncredited, Side One is an Extended Version of The Sun And The Rain.
mannyg 11th Feb 2018		12" Single New Order - Round & Remix (1989)	Some copies contain extra track on Side B - 'Best And Marsh'. It's not credited anywhere on the sleeve or label.
mannyg 25th May 2014		12" Single Ultravox - All Stood Still (1981)	There's also another pressing of the sleeve with pictures of the three band members on the reverse.
mannyg 2nd Mar 2014		12" Single The Human League - RED (1981)	There are two pressings of this one; the scanned version of the label and one where the publishing details have been amended to add Virgin Music (Publishers) Ltd. Guessing the latter is a second press?
mannyg 18th Aug 2013		12" Single Public Image Ltd - Flowers Of Romance (Extended Version) (1981)	The 'Extended Version' is really the album version and the instrumental version back to back.
mannyg 18th Aug 2013		12" Single Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark - Messages (1980)	Own copy comes with a green label with different label credits for the A Side.
mannyg 9th Jun 2013		12" Single Frankie Goes To Hollywood - War (Hidden) (1984)	This one IS available as a picture disc as well as this standard release. I'll re-add a separate entry for this one...
mannyg 20th Apr 2013		12" Single Abecedarians - Smiling Monarchs (1985)	It isn't stated on the sleeve or label but the A Side was produced by Bernard Sumner.
mannyg 15th Jan 2013		12" Single Yazoo - Nobody's Diary (Original 7" Mix) (1983)	Own copy is Number P/1653.
mannyg 13th Jan 2013		12" Single New Order - Sub-Culture (1985)	Peter Saville, the designer of New Order and countless other Factory sleeves, disagreed so strongly with the release of this single that he refused to design a sleeve for it. This is why it is packaged in a plain black die-cut sleeve.
mannyg 13th Jan 2013		12" Single Lo Fidelity Allstars - Disco Machine Gun (1997)	This was withdrawn from sale after a few days of its release due to an uncleared sample from 'Cannonball' by The Breeders. It re-appeared on their debut album as 'Blisters On My Brain' with the sample removed.
mannyg 12th Jan 2013		12" Single INXS - Shining Star (1991)	I have a mispressing of this one. The label for the B Side appears on both sides. Anyone else have this?
mannyg 12th Jan 2013		12" Single INXS - What You Need (Force Mix) (1991)	Own copy is number 000504.
mannyg 11th Jan 2013		12" Single Inspiral Carpets - Caravan Remix (1991)	Own copy is number 07096.
mannyg 8th Jan 2013		12" Single Depeche Mode - People Are People (On-USound Remix By Adrian Sherwood) (1984)	Own copy is number X / 0822.
