The album's inner sleeve has recording details for all tracks.
This version of "Radio Sweetheart" is a slightly different mix to the
original version (B-side of "Less Than Zero" 7"). It does not have the
backing vocals singing "Oooooh" at the start of the line "Hope in the
eyes..." near the start.
I have seen a Canadian version of the LP that had the CBS/Columbia
logo on the label blanked out with a circular black sticker (standard
practice for Columbia albums imported to the UK).
Reached #28 in US charts.
