Notes
- F-Beat XX5 contained "Pay no more than 50p" notice on sleeve.
- The first 1,500 picture discs came with a black rim (promo copies) and are currently worth about twice as much as the later clear rimmed copies (15000 pressed). Some brown rimmed copies were also released.
- On the US white label promo, the runout on one side is the number ZSS 167275-1C T and the '5' is scratched over to a '6'. On the other side is ZSS 167275-1C T and the entire number portion is scratched out and '167675' is scratched in lightly to the side.
