"Made in England" TPLP 31 CDX has been released in a bewildering number of pressings, and a combination of information found on the jewel case, in the booklet, on the CD label and in the matrix must be considered to identify a particular release. This release here is Mayking v3. (1) Releases differ as to whether they contain a reference to the Antonio Jobim sample on the last page of the booklet or not. There is only one pressing without the reference, the first Maykind Records pressing (Mayking v1). It may come with a round, black hype sticker reading "Includes singles Play Dead, Venus As A Boy, Human Behaviour, Big Time Sensuality" or a sticker promoting the album as a "Brit Awards Winner". All other pressing mention the sample in the booklet. However, some of them make a "Made in England" reference on the CD label and others do not. (2) There are two pressings that mention the sample and contain the "Made in England" reference, an earlier one without SID codes by Maykind Records (Mayking v2) and a later one by Docdata (Docdata v1) with SID codes. (3) Five pressings mention the sample, but do not contain the "Made in England" reference. This includes three Mayking Records pressings, all of which without SID codes and occasionally distributed with a round, black hype sticker reading "Includes singles Play Dead, Venus As A Boy, Human Behaviour, Big Time Sensuality". These three pressings can only be distinguished by their matrix (Mayking v3 - this release, Mayking v4, Mayking v5). Two later pressings contain SID codes, one by Docdata (Docdata v2) and another one with a matrix pattern reflecting the reissues of the mid to late 2000s. Importantly, matrix information and SID codes are not sufficient to identify a particular release. The two Docdata versions partially come with the same matrix variants, and the same is true for some of the Mayking pressings.
