Notes
This is a variation of the first entry. Once compared it would appear the first entry was the initial version and this variant followed. The main differences are the obi which has switched the picture for a more detailed and rotated version. The "David Bowie" script is also fatter. The back of the obi is completely different and includes updated catalogue numbers of the discography, a copyright statement and handling instructions. The cover has a more pronounced texture and the colours are lighter overall. The label colour and moulding also differ and, perhaps most significantly, side one of this entry is a different cut to the first entry which shares its plate with the original '75 issue. The deadwax of this entry is notably narrower on side one. (All comparison pics show the first entry on the left, this entry on the right). The lyric insert is the same as the first entry.
