The Man Who Sold The World

This is the counterfeit version of the original US Mercury edition of the album, see [r710468]. For visually similar counterfeit with simpler matrices, please see [r13168233]. The following visual indicators can be used to distinguish the counterfeit from the official US Mercury LP: • The matrices in the runout are etched, not stamped. • The space between the final lyric line of The Supermen and the cartoon bubble "Oh By Jingo" on the back cover is notably wider than the space on the official version. • The three stripes above Mercury logo on the cover of the official US Mercury edition stretch over the top edge of the sleeve. The counterfeit version falls short of the top edge, rather than being folded and glued over the top of the sleeve as on the official version. Also, about 2 seconds of music is missing from track A2, "All The Madmen". The line "For I'm quite content they're all as sane as me" at the end of the first chorus is missing the words, "they're all as sane as me" (you can hear the start of the word "they're" if you listen closely). From back cover (on both this and the official version): All selections published by PRS. Ltd (ASCAP) Recorded at Trident Studios and Advision Studios, London, England Remixed at Trident Studios, London, England Many thanks to our engineer, Ken. Track A2 is titled "All The Madmen" on back cover, but shown as "All The Mad Men" on label side A.
