There were so many pressings of this in 83 i have no idea if some are considered better than others, all I can say is that this is a press of the A1 cut with the two missing beats on the intro and it sounds fantastic. It's a hot cut and just powers out of the speakers, if you're looking for something a bit cheaper than the VERY first press you certainly won't be disappointed with this.
