************************UPDATE************************** In the run out grooves, both sides are stamped UAG 30045 and then B 1-U and A 1-U dependant on each side of the record. So, it is the same catalogue number as the UK release, so it must be a UK test pressing. Also, 'engraved' into one side of the run out it says Jonz.
