Notes

℗ 1979 Hobbicomms
Recorded SMILE, Manchester.
Tracklist actually lists both sides as "A"
Cover printed on pale green office cardboard.

When the stock of picture sleeves was exhausted, remaining copies were made available in a 'Hobbies Of Today' company sleeve (see separate entry)

Of the 1000 singles pressed, several hundred were destroyed in the 1990s due to lack of storage space for the band's spare stock.
