Represses and Reissues

Discs of the original CD release were manufactured by Specialty Records Corporation. Represses may have mould SID IFPI 2U**. At the end of 1996 the plant was officially renamed to WEA Mfg. Olyphant. Later glass master versions have no SRC credit and a WEA Mfg. Olyphant logo instead. Discs pressed after 2003 (by successor Cinram) have 'CI' stamped into the matrix.

Be aware: All discs of this release were manufactured at the same plant, supposedly with the same disc ID, but that's not certain. Furthermore it's not 100% guaranteed that all released versions used completely unchanged artwork. Not all versions are fully documented yet and this annotation should be updated on further knowledge.
