I have an RCA Music Service pressing, however it appears to be pressed by Allied, not SRC.
Matrix / Runout (Side A runout):1-25110-A-SH3[Allied 'ɑ' logo] B-19421-SH3 SLM △68511-1 SM1-50-7 R-160175 A SH-SP
Matrix / Runout (Side B runout):1-25110-B-SH8[Allied 'ɑ' logo] B-19422-SH8 SLM △6851-X SP03 R-160175 B 1-4 SH-SP
The mastering and pressing is great, btw, despite being a club edition. Even with the groove wear on my copy, the dynamics shine through. It seems likely the same BG mastering. I'm thinking about picking up a cleaner copy of the SRC pressing (as that appears the only club pressing listed), but my existing copy is hard to let go.
