The first issue of the Airconditioning album was on a picture disc in the UK, pressed as 10,000 copies. The black side with the 'mandala' image was Side A, the light 'dynamo' image was Side B.
This picture disc was used as a subsequent image on a white cover for reissues. The first non-picture disc in the UK was on the green Warner Bros. Label; WSX 3012. The cover image was the 'dynamo' side - which had the art of the text changed to read WSX 3012 A. The wax was etched WS 3102. When the Kinney operation took over in the UK a 'K' prefix was used for the two K 56004 releases (Which was stamped onto vinyl that still bore "WS 3012" etched on the wax). The 1st 'K' release had a green label, the 2nd an illustrated blue label, with cat# on cover. Both had the 'black' side on cover.
Note that the spelling on cover is 'Airconditioning' while all (?) labels show 'Air Conditioning'.
