This is an original pressing as it is made of double weight cardboard with two openings in the sleeve. THE original does not have a booklet .

The new issue is sealed on the front flap with a single opening. The poster is also double weight paper on the original. The cover is a lighter shade of blue overall, whilst the poster is a darker shade to the cover. The original also comes with a white paper plastic lined inner bag. The over all dimensions of the original cover is 12mm (1/2") bigger than the new release and it was never issued sealed or with any stickers. The original has an circular white EMI logo with Music from EMI in the bottom right corner. Both bar code references are the same, but the original bar code last digit is on the outside of the code. The new version has the last digit on the inside of the code. First and last digits to the bar code are smaller font on the original. The original sounds much smoother than the new version, but both sound fantastic with zero rumble in the vinyl cut.
