Notes
The original album had an outer sleeve which was made to look like a plain brown paper bag. - Each cover showed an alternate angle of a man in a bar. The scenario has been photographed from 6 different viewpoints within the bar and then 6 different sleeve variations have been created (with the letters A-F at the top of the spine denoting each variation).
- The inner sleeve features a 'magic' ink in different colours which appear on the design when gently wetting.
- The black & white inner sleeves of the original pressings change colour when moistened; the reissues do not change colour. Original pressings have dark purple (almost black) printing on the paper bag; reissues (circa 1981-1982 but still pre-barcode) have light purple (pastel) printing on the bag. All black & white inner sleeves are identical.
