    I'm almost positive that the copy I have is a counterfeit. This is what's on the runouts of my 7" copy:
    7-27539-RE1-A-DMM-SR1 SPAR SP1-2 STERLING TJ -1 R-22571-RE1-SR1 △24190 O-
    7-27539-RE1-B-SR1-DMM MASTERDISK DMM SP1-2 SPAR O- △24190 -X R-22572-SR1

    None of the 7" versions on here have anything like the runout. Everything past the -1 on the first runout doesn't show up on any of the versions, or anything like it for that matter. Not even the opposing runouts are consistent with each other. The label, however, looks exactly like this one: https://discogs.programascracks.com/release/121731-Madonna-Like-A-Prayer/image/SW1hZ2U6NDU5NTI1OTc=

    Is what I have a counterfeit, just extremely rare (misprint?), or am I an idiot and it's the release that was linked?
