| • | Etc: First pressings have "G&L" printed on the lower right corner of the rear sleeve, angled thumb notches and "The child hides in the light" etched into the dead wax on side A. All box set reissues have a small rectangular mark on the bridge of Kate's nose on the rear sleeve (which looks like sticker residue on the copy that was shot). For additional information on first pressings vs. reissues, look here. Scan courtesy of Pertti. | |
| • | Etc2: The A-side has a slightly different mix than the LP: it opens with Kate saying "He's here" 6 times. |
