I have a copy with the cat # of PB 74764 on the back cover (on the label it says PB 74765). Can't find a reference for this anywhere. I suspect it may be from a box set.

My copy of this (and weirdly, my girlfriend's copy too) are disappeared, I just went and got the Ryko version for the extra tracks, but WHICH IS THE BEST SOUNDING VINYL CUT KIDS? I'm guessing the U.S. pressing is the one, but you never know....
Umor
While the saxes in Young Americans are undoubtably awesome, having to listen to them for the entirety of the record is exhausting. I'll just get Changes for the hits as I can do without the rest.
