Notes:

This edition says "West End Girls (Dance Mix)" on the A-side label. The B-side label correctly credits Steven Spiro for the first track.
Runout etchings indicate Allied & Sheffield metal work, but it was pressed by Specialty, as indicated by the AL-SP etching, and on some copies, E A S T embossed around the center hole on the B-side.
