EMI 5032, EMI 5032A (side A) / EMI 5032B (side B)

- COVER: cardboard picture sleeve,

EMI 5032

- RELEASED: Originally released in 1980 in the UK though due to the different cover and similarly coloured center labels I believe this one is a repress from around

1983-1985. The first UK editions of iron Maiden and Killers albums as well as early Maiden UK singles had significantly different coloured center labels on

different sides of the record, the other label was more like brownish and the other more like greenish. In addition all the Maiden UK singles up to 1982

seem to have been released in paper sleeves.

- NOTE: Very similar release in paper sleeve exists, see the release right above.

EMI 5065, EMI 5065A (side A) / EMI 5065B (side B)

- COVER: censored paper picture sleeve,

EMI 5065

- RELEASED: Originally released with uncensored sleeve on 7th of June 1980 (source: the booklet of Iron Maiden 1998 remastered album).

This censored edition is a reissue released soon afterwards though apparently only the UK edition was censored.

- NOTE 1: Few seconds after the second live song has ended on the B-side Di'Anno shouts "Yeeeaaah! I Made it!".

The shouting also takes place in the 2014 EU reissue but none of the Holland pressings listed here.

- NOTE 2: Both sides play at 45RPM. The 2014 reissue has side B cut at 33RPM.

- NOTE 3: This one sounds rougher than the 2014 edition but the 2014 edition has warm distortion not present on this edition. It's pretty much a coinflip between the two.

- RELEASED: Most likely made and released in 1981 in the US.

- OTHER: The vinyl looks black in normal lighting but if you look at it against a bright light it's clearly yellowish-brown like Coca-Cola.

Some people say this is because the vinyl was pressed from new (virgin) vinyl material.

- NOTE 1: The first US editions came with Harvest - Eddie - lamp-post labels, reissues come with Capitol - Eddie - lamp-post labels.

- NOTE 2: This one sounds much like the release right below but more bassy, slightly more toned down (even somewhat muffled) and less distorted.

I like a lot more of this release than the release right below.

- RELEASED: Reissue most likely released in 1984 in the US.

- OTHER: The vinyl looks black in normal lighting but if you look at it against a bright light it's clearly yellowish-brown like Coca-Cola.

This one looks more transparent and therefore also more yellowish-brown instead of black than the release right above, the difference is clear though not huge.

Some people say this is because the vinyl was pressed from new (virgin) vinyl material.

- NOTE 1: The is a reissue with Capitol - Eddie - lamp-post labels, the first US editions came with Harvest - Eddie - lamp-post labels.

- NOTE 2: This one sounds much like the release right above but less bassy, more distorted and cut at slightly higher volume.

Based on the runouts the Wally signature is clearly different, you can see it especially from the A-side W, meaning these two records were highly likely

pressed from a different cut so the difference in sound quality is not solely due to pressing and manufacturing variations.

- NOTE 3: This record also carries a scratched over Capitol Records Winchester pressing plant symbol (-------◁) on the A-side meaning this was originally made for the

Winchester pressing plant and probably few plates were simply transferred from the Winchester plant to the Jacksonville plant.

Based on the Wally signatures and the significantly different sound quality it seems likely two cuts were made, one for each pressing plant.

Being a reissue there's also the possibility this was cut later in the mid 80s for the Winchester.

- COVER: Clear plastic sleeve (probably not the original sleeve).

- NOTE: This is merely a collector's item as the sound quality is very soft like usually for picture discs. Also the pressing quality might be a lot better as my copy is bowl

shaped. However, the cut is excellent and I imagine would sound great on black vinyl.

The German 12" single has much deeper and much more accurate sound than this one.

I prefer the cut of the UK picture disc more than this one but since it's a picture disc the sound quality is compromised.

This one sounds a lot different from the 12" German single right above though in some ways I like them both.
