Notes

Released on clear vinyl with a green tint. Issued in matte double-pocket gatefold sleeve with Japanese-style obi, sealed in loose polyvinyl sleeve with perforations for easy opening.
Transparent anti-static inner sleeves (with white paper between the layers).

Track C1: Previously unreleased track from 1970
Track C2: Single A-side from 1970
Tracks C3 & C4: These tracks were released as a single under the name Arnold Corns in 1971. While the name was inspired by David's favourite Pink Floyd song “Arnold Layne”, the group itself never really existed. In pubblicity photos Bowie appeared alongside dress designer Freddi Buretti, who was supposedly the group's lead singer and a discovery of David's. Both of these songs were later re-worked for the Ziggy Stardust album.

    Curious- the jacket clearly says 'Ryko Analogue AAA' on the backside, however listing says DMM/ digital remastering...has it been proven that Ryko bluntly lied about this release?
