Notes: For this record you can find 6 different colour cover and a lot of vinyl colour variation and misspressing (due to the change of colour press). First issue was the black vinyl with Incredible metallic hammersmith, later issue was the black vinyl with plain white label and the colour version (probably first red and yellow, later blue and green). From the colour version is probably most rare the clear and the blue version. The Incredible metallic hammersmith label version is not so easy to find now. Also available a black vinyl with plain red label or plain yellow label (info taked from Samuel website), not sure if there is really a pressing with this label or maybe only some copies with ‘home’ label. This record is complete with the second part of the Iron cock company: ‘Calling all destroyers’.
