This pressing includes Damont etched into the matrices. Furthermore, with moulded indentations under each label. Whereas, another first release, Adolescent Sex excludes Damont, and the labels are stuck to vinyl which has a different (almost flat) moulding.

Original vinyl copies released in the UK and Europe included either a 2 sided lyric sheet or an inner sleeve.

There were two releases in the UK that used the same catalogue number: AHAL 8004. One was manufactured in the UK with Ariola Hansa 'Rainbow' labels and was pressed on thick vinyl. In Germany, the other had black/silver labels, Adolescent Sex which was pressed using thinner quality vinyl. Furthermore, the sleeve produced in Germany appears to have used the German 'Hansa International' sleeve but with the German catalogue number removed and replaced with the UK number, AHAL 8004: Adolescent Sex.
