Additional Information

The most desirable issue was the original Arista pressing in the blue textured or thermographic sleeve. It also featured an inner sleeve with extra pictures, credits and album details.

The raised 'braille' bumps proved extremely expensive to produce, so further Arista pressings were produced with just the blue cardboard sleeve.

For their reissues, Virgin modified the sleeve again, and packaged the album in a glossy blue sleeve, but didn't include the inner sleeve.
