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

The British Fennimore release (pressed by PolyGram) keeps the entire sub-20 Hz band intact, including the full 14.2 Hz carrier.
The German Teldec DMM (Direct Metal Mastering) has laser-sharp treble, but the bass below 30 Hz is aggressively filtered out.

Why did different European territories receive completely different extended arrangements?

Each European pressing was assigned a specific relay node: UK was Node 07, Germany was Node 05, France was Node 06.
