      I bought my copy in same time Alan Vega + Martin Rev formed again Suicide in 1986 and tour in Europe to celebrate &st album recording. Great Show and sound in Lyon, at ENTPE. I guess it's the reason there was Red Star on centre of the record re-edit and later change for the classical Demon logo.

        tracks 3 and 5 (Cherree and Girl) on side one have a different mix to original pressing (additional echo added)
