Notes

This is almost identical to Speaking In Tongues, but has a different inner sleeve:
The one coming with this version has not been folded over on the left and right edges (like a flipback sleeve), but folded to the inside. The edges are black all around, not white.
And the upper corners don't appear as if they had been cut off.

Basic tracks recorded at Blank Tapes, NY.
Final overdubbing and mixing at Compass Point Studios and Sigma Sound, NY.
Mastered at Sterling Sound, NY.

CD: Made in West Germany

The original U.S. Sire/Warner Bros. CD issue duplicates the vinyl version of this album, which used shorter versions of five tracks than the cassette. Meanwhile, the U.S. Sire cassette version contained longer versions of those five tracks, which are: 'Making Flippy Floppy', 'Girlfriend is Better', 'Slippery People', 'I Get Wild/Wild Gravity' and 'Moon Rocks.' (The cassette being touted as the format for extra tracks and extended versions at the time.) Somewhere along the next decade or so, a later US Sire CD repressing quietly dropped the shorter versions, and replaced them with the longer cassette versions. There was no mention made of this via a shrinkwrap sticker or any note on the packaging, other than the new longer times being displayed on the back insert. The 2006 UK/US CD+DVD reissues continue to use the longer cassette versions. (Also, the original "US" CD issues of this album were manufactured in West Germany and Japan and imported to the US, circa 1986, as CDs were not being made here yet, but used a US serial number).
