 Break-In Master:
If you're talking about what I think you're talking about, it's actually part of the sleeve design. Obviously omitted from the US release.

 Did ALL the British copies have the exact same ring wear? When I first bought mine, slightly used (about 30 years ago), I thought it was just because the previous owner (probably a punker) did that but, I've seen a few of them here and pictured on YT this past week with pretty much the exact same rings, if not THEE EXACT same rings.

 yvetot-bocage: Todd Rundgren. As my singer one said, Todd & Elvis were having contests to see who could fit more songs on an album. Todd did it 5 years before Elvis.

 Oh yes, janie. I see now. I like stuff more specific. Clearer and better in other country listings.

 Anyone notice song titles are wrongly listed; viz-a-vie, side one list is side two song and visa versa!!

 I agree with Janie on this one, this album was a disappointment. My eagerly anticipated copy was traded away within a fortnight of release. The first three songs on Side Two are all great but with so much filler anything that was great on the album had a difficult job getting noticed due the sheer amount of songs on the album. Sure some are classic Costello but the album is more an exercise in what is possible, cramming 20 songs on an LP rather than a cohesive LP. The sound restrictions caused by amount of content are also an issue. A case of a good idea but it didn't come off. I have never regretted selling my copy of this one.

 Just a close second to "Imperial Bedroom". How many could have delivered 20 songs of such a calibre on one LP ?

 It was of course deliberately made to look aged, with "ringwear" printed on the cover.

 This was very disappointing at the time, cause due to filling it to the brim with songs, it is rather low in sound, specially the voice is far back.
