Notes: US-only promotional release; the very first official Bruce Springsteen picture disc ever issued. Front/back colour photos are identical to the standard album cover artwork, though lacking any type apart from a small company logo of the manufacturer ("Pic Veu Records - A Division Of Fitzgerald Hartley Co.") printed onto each side of the disc. Originally came in a special white die-cut display sleeve that featured tracklisting/credits on rear and included the regular lyric sheet as well. Counterfeits in circulation have substantially poorer sound quality than originals, which nearly play as good as their normal black vinyl counterparts despite the fact that some copies tend to jump during the first 10 seconds of "Badlands" (actually another clear sign of authenticity). Genuine matrix numbers are PAL-35318-1AJ (A-side) and PBL-35318-2AD (B-side). The exact number of (original) discs pressed is not quite clear, but realistic estimates range from 3,000 to 5,000.
