Notes:

Some initial copies came with a sticker attached, stating:  'The Very Best of Japan:  Includes 5 Tracks Never Previously Released On Album'.  In early 1982 the sticker was revised to name the three most recent singles on Hansa - 'European Son', 'Quiet Life', and 'Life In Tokyo'.

Another pressing exists without [l141989 etched into either matrix - [r=17636026.
Later German pressings came with an alternate sticker design in late 1982.
