Found a minty copy a few months back with original shrink and hype sticker saying “Special US Edition - Includes bonus cut “How Soon Is Now?”
Unreal pressing! Love having How Soon Is Now? as an unlisted cut on side B. Definitely one of my most coveted records in my collection. Punchy, clear tone with lovely separation of instruments and vocals- just a marvelous record.
