#5293 has the typical German grey label but Made in Holland with Holland also on back of jacket

Yet this one, #0200, for me arrived in the German jacket with references to Metronome (which is probably the issue here on site shown as #0271 ). Can anyone else please check their copy - does your jacket reference Netherlands or Germany for this issue? For mine, the catalog # 817-470-1 ME is found both on the printed inner sleeve and back of jacket (along with barcode in upper right corner). I'm trying to verify whether my record was placed into a German-issue sleeve and jacket, or if it was originally issued in this way. Thanks for your help, fellow collectors.

		Thanks sukiac - I am asking about this issue with the red labels. Does your jacket state Germany or Netherlands?

the only issue pictured or time displayed on label to have time for 'lets go to bed' 7:40, does this actually play at this length, also surprised to see the varing differences in track lengths from various countries, sweet dreams

		Bonjour ... I have 2 different pressings ... on the LP with the gray labels "Gema" "Made In Holland" the timing is printed 3:32 ... on the other with the yellow/ red/ white labels (similar "Boys Don't Cry ") "Stemra" "Made In Holland" the timing is 7:40 ... I notice that the engravings of the tracks are identical on these 2 albums and that the timing of the A1 is almost similar to the other titles of a duration of 3 to 4 minutes ... Regards.

		Great find Pheel242! love anomalies like these. when I get time to check again, i'm sure the Dutch (or whichever release uses the standard version of JOK) pressings of The Walk EP use a weird 7" version from the 12" mix of Just One Kiss. Will report back on my findings.....

		Hi drsmith - I wanted to let you know today I've received my copy of this issue and I can confirm for you that both A1 (Let's Go To Bed) and B4 (The Lovecats) are the extended remix versions of these singles, and that I have been informed this Netherlands pressing is the only issue of this record to have these extended tracks. An answer for you at last - better late than later, I suppose? :)
