ASCAP B2 © 1984 House Of Fun Music BMI Originally Mastered [...] at Masterdisk, New York Fanatically recorded digitally from start to finish on Sony equipment © 1984 Sire Records Company Additional information: Track B1 was not included on the original version of this album. It was added to the European reissue and its presence is advertised by a round blue sticker on the front cover. In addition, some copies included a promotional one-sided color A4 insert for the "Madonna Live - The Virgin Tour" that had just been released on VHS and Beta. Another feature that distinguishes this reissue from the original version is that the generic Sire typeface is used on the label, whereas the previous versions used the custom "madonna" typeface used. Issued with back cover printed upside down and custom inner sleeve with lyrics and credits. Some copies came with a sticker on back cover: Club Sonderauflage which featured an additional Cat# 32325 3, check detailed photos. Runout information: Runout inscriptions contain stamped and etched parts. Stamped are "MASTERDISK", and main matrix number string on both sides, including crossed-out part "9̶2̶5̶1̶5̶7̶-̶1̶ ̶A̶" , i.e. "R/S Alsdorf 925181-1 A/R/S Alsdorf 925181-1 B". The rest of inscriptions are etched. Some of the etched inscriptions can be etched very sloppy and lightly onto the surface, and are therefore open for interpretation, e.g. variant 32, side A/B: "93"/"<╷D╷>". Furthermore, last "2" of runout A-side, variant 31, looks like a mirrored number "5". Similar versions: [url=https://www.discogs.com/release/12637927]Release 12637927[/url]: seems identical, only that it was tagged as European version [url=https://www.discogs.com/release/12504617]Release 12504617[/url]: very similar, but the barcode's text form as well as font differ, i.e. "0 75992 51811"
