West German 7-inch single on London Go! Discs. 3-tracks including ‘Who’s He’ and ‘The Best Man’s Fall’.
Again, the paper sleeve seems to be inferior in quality compared to the UK release. This seems to be a common occurrence with the import stuff I’ve obtained; not sure if it’s just Go! Discs – maybe this happens with other labels. This copy has a large centre hole to accommodate an automatic play mechanism on the changer, so a stack of singles would drop down one record at a time automatically after each play – a rare sight these days.
