Notes

1st issue with moulded injection labels and 'flipback' picture card sleeve with a curved edge opening to the right.

Side A, unlike the album, features the censored version of 'The Modern World': the [last] line 'I don't give two fucks about your review' has been replaced with 'I don't give a damn about your review'. This version was used on subsequent editions and compilations.

Side A: (From The Polydor LP "This Is The Modern World" -2383 475)
Side B: Recorded Live at 100 Club 11.9.77

A1 is indexed as A/ on back cover, B1 and B2 as B/ and C/; B3 is only a partial recording and is only listed on the label.
