Notes from the original pressing. Later editions may differ.
Track A was remixed by Tin Drum producer, Steve Nye and has a harder, less disco, sound than the John Punter mixes of 1980.
The original 1980 mix of 'European Son' was first released in Japan as the b-side of 'I Second That Emotion' and on the Special Edition - Five Song - Extended Play (Canada 1980) (opens in a new tab), in Canada. The original version of 'European Son' is available on Assemblage and 'Alien' is taken from the album Quiet Life.
