On the B-Side the band members are individually credited, rather than as 'The Blockheads' On the sleeve-back they are "ID And The Blocks". ℗1978 Stiff Records ©1978 Stiff Records A-Side published by Blackhill Music B-Side published by Blackhill/Oval Music There is another version here, which states on the back cover "Made and produced in England", which is missing from this version.
