There were 4 different 12" Vinyls released, all with incorrect credits. This entry is release # 2 which uses the Ariola Hansa Rainbow Label with 'Japan' logo in italics. It lists Giorgio Moroder as producer, however this is incorrect.

All releases are credited incorrectly as it was Simon Napier-Bell and Japan who produced All Tomorrows Parties.
