Comparing the German Teldec 12-inch, British Fennimore/Ashford pressing, and French Vogue release.

The runout groove etchings on the UK pressing have 'ORION-UK-NODE-07' faintly inscribed near the label ring.
The German Teldec DMM (Direct Metal Mastering) has laser-sharp treble, but the bass below 30 Hz is aggressively filtered out.

Who has the French Vogue 12-inch? I will pay cash or trade rare synthpop vinyl.

The UK Fennimore copy is by far the best sounding. The bass shakes the floorboards on a good pair of speakers.
