This is a very nice pressing and good sounding record by Manfred Mann.

I think I got this version. Mine came with a commercial paper for the other MMEB records.
Great sound quality!

Lies was the radio play track, pleasant pop synth anthem.

I just heard Club mix of For You by the Disco Boys. I am a DJ and a Manfred Mann fan and a Rock guy from the 60's-70's. I am not offended by the the disco cover style.

The labels of the ARIOLA club edition are different from the standard labels: they read „Club Edition“ Above the Manfred Mann‘s Earthband printing on both sides

I own two Versions of this record, one with the second song on the second side "Hello, I am your heart", one with "This is your heart". The songs are identical, but the Covers and Innersleeves are different. Both LPs wear the Number 202 970 -320 and are made in Western Germany. Does anybody know somethig about it?
