Compil. US 1984 on Sugar Hill Records label
Hip-Hop/Rap and R&B/Soul (Electro, Disco)
This version can be distinguished by the 1984 US pressing by the "Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five" text, which is printed on both labels directly below the album title (the labels on the other version omit this information). Likewise, this version can also be distinguished by the "◈ P ◈" machine-stamped into the vinyl of the runout grooves.
