THE SMITHS ACETATE - NEVER come for sale, this one has a different mix as can be seen by the writting on the label and the ACETATE sleeve
This ACETATE came from a major publishing company I bought 9 years ago, you can see the library number R16 on the master bag, ont he ACETATE sleeve and on the ACETATE label
It looks like it has never been played before I tested it.
The B. side features a couple of minutes of a track by THE THRASHING DOVES BEAUTIFUL IMBALANCE from the same year
Also the title of THE SMITHS track is missing the word UNITE, so probably an earlier title
