Debut

Information from Discogs

This is a repress of the second edition release with the extra track “Play Dead”. It was pressed by Universal.

Key characteristics are: (1) The last page of the booklet contains a “Made in England” reference and also mentions the Antonio Jobim sample. (2) The back cover shows a small white block next to the barcode. (3) The CD label contains a BIEM/MCPS reference on the centre-left. (4) The CD matrix has IFPI codes.

However, these characteristics are not unique to this release. There are at least eight more pressings ticking the above boxes, including four more Universal pressings. The only way to distinguish these pressings, and to identify one’s version, is to examine the CD matrix carefully. A complete overview of all pressings can be found here.

Thanks to Judy Blame.
