Notes

Columbia Records Pressing Plant, Carrollton, GA pressing with only symbols on the front LP jacket and Vlado Meller's lacquer cutting signature in the runout. For the very similar Carrollton pressing with only symbols on the front LP jacket, but containing no lacquer cutting signature in the runout, use George Michael - Faith. For the Carrollton pressing with "Faith George Michael" in plain text on the front LP jacket, use George Michael - Faith.

This has C 40867 on labels and no "MADE IN U.S.A." at bottom of labels. Faith has 40867 and "MADE IN U.S.A."

Catalog number appears with an "OC" prefix on the spine but just a "C" prefix on labels.

This release comes with an inner sleeve and a separate 12 in. x 12 in. poster with George Michael's face on one side and lyrics on the other.

Track A3 is in two parts, but this is not designated on the back cover. The label lists the track as "I Want Your Sex (Parts 1 & 2)." The inner sleeve lists the track as "I Want Your Sex (Monogamy Mix)."

This edition has either catalog number 40867-S2 or 40867-S3 on the hype sticker on the front cover with a different layout from other US editions with the same catalog number.

Runouts are etched, except for some plating symbols which are stamped.
