- CENTER LABELS: Eddie with lamp-post labels,

℗ 1980 Original sound recording made by EMI Records Ltd., MADE IN GT BRITAIN

- COVER: cardboard picture sleeve

- 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.

- COVER: uncensored cardboard sleeve, Leiden tourdate printed on the back cover,

Marketed, manufactured and distributed by EMI

PRINTED IN HOLLAND

- RELEASED: Supposedly the first edition released in 1980 though based on the runouts this copy is an early repress.

- NOTE 1: An edition with the same center labels but without the Leiden tour date on the back cover is rumoured to exist though it may well be someone has changed

a cover for it from another edition (all the represses I have seen have identical cover but the Leiden tourdate has different shade of black box printed over it).

- NOTE 2: This is by far the best sounding edition of this record and one of the best sounding records I have ever played even though the copy I have is well worn,

scratched and beaten up!

- NOTE 1: At least two other German editions with cardboard sleeve are known to exist.

- NOTE 2: This is a very good quality record though quite bright sounding like the records made in the German EMI plant usually are.

The corresponding US Wally cut Harvest edition sounds a lot softer than this one.

A SUBSIDIARY OF CAPITOL INDUSTRIES-EMI, INC.,

HOLLYWOOD & VINE STREETS , HOLLYWOOD, CALIF.

FACTORIES: LOS ANGELES, CALIF., JACKSONVILLE, ILL., WINCHESTER, VA.

- 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 plant though the stamper numbers indicate otherwise.
