* Martin Hannett's 'Testcard'; included in the sandpaper editions; see below. (Shares the same number. "14A" & "14B" refer to the flexi sides only.)
** There were two editions of the sandpaper sleeve (total of 2,000): 1st Edition, not spray-painted; 2nd Edition, spray-painted with "FACT 14" (in black or white), and using a recut pressing. (See matrix.) Both editions should have included the flexi-7”, but this was inconsistent ("quality control"?, theft?), and as such, the flexi may be missing from some copies of both editions. There are initial pressings on red-tinged vinyl. Sprayed editions with "THE RETURN OF THE DURUTTI COLUMN" in black (instead of "FACT 14") also exist.
*** With sandpaper insert.
**** Released as part of FACD 224.
***** Black sleeve issue is an additional mix (or version) with less reverb & more phasing. Varying textured and non-textured sleeves.

Production: MARTIN HANNETT

Design: DAVE ROWBOTHAM & ANTHONY H WILSON (SANDPAPER SLEEVE [CONCEPT]) / STEPHEN HORSFALL (BLACK SLEEVE)
