It seems, an original UK CBS Aston Clinton master was used for this release, because the arrangement and spelling of the runouts exactly match those of [l553982] UK: 'The matrix is found at 12 o'clock, horizontally - rather than following the circumference of the runout' [...] At 9 o’clock there is usually a letter, also very faintly stamped. This is a mother indicator [...]. The most common letter [...] is A. On high volume releases there may be other "shallow" letters such as B, C, D, etc.' -This has Matrix number at 12 o'clock, and 'B' stamped on both sides runouts at 9 o'clock.

Misprint on side A label, listing 'You Gotta Move' as number 4 instead of 5 [both, 'Can't You Hear Me Knocking' & 'You Gotta Move' are listed as number 4].

No WEA credit in runouts.
No Promotone credit.
No Label Code on labels, insert or cover.
No writing at all on cover rear.

Recorded On The Rolling Stones Mobile And At Olympic Studios.
