Around And Around ( 1984 Italy AOI 21392 Stereo Label Silver Blue-Red Decca Logo Reissue )

Note:

South Michigan Avenue: Version 2 Long Version 3.39 .

Poison Ivy: Version 2 Without GÜİRO Instrument Ratchet-Like Sound.

This Record Is A Hybrid Italian-German Release.

The Labels And The Cover Were Printed By PolyGram In Milan.

The Acronym AOI: This Is The Specific Cataloging Code That Decca/PolyGram Italian Used In The early 1980s For Their Budget Or Mid-priced Import Series.

The Vinyl Was Physically Pressed In Germany By TELDEC, Using German Metal Stencils (Matrixes) 6.21 392.

21392: This Precisely Reproduces The Final Part Of The German Matrix Code Printed On The Vinyl (6.21392), Creating The Perfect Bridge Between The Italian License And The German Manufacturing.

That Intertwined Symbol, Composed Of Two Wavy Lines Crossing In The Shape Of An "X" Or A Small Knot, Located Immediately To The Left Of The Barcode On The Typeface, Is Not A Signature, But The Legendary "Re-cut" (Re-edition/Correction) Symbol Used By TELDEC Technicians.

The Machine-stamped Matrix 6.21 392- 01- 1/2 : This Uniform Metal Font Style 100% Confirms The Use Of The Heavy Machinery From The TELDEC Factory In Germany.

The Two-tone Label: At The Top, You Can See The Silver Background With Blue And Red Circular Bands And The Wording STEREO 21392 01, The Exact Same Graphic Printed In Italy for Decca's National Distribution

Series.

A Second Attempt In The studio: When The Sound Engineer Transferred The Rolling Stones' Tracks from The Original Magnetic Tapes To The Metallic Master Lacquer, The First Cut Failed The Factory's Quality Control (Because The Low Frequencies Caused The Needle To Skip Or There Was Distortion In The Grooves).

The Symbol For Passing The test: The Technician Had To Recalibrate The Neumann Mechanical Lathe And Perform A Second, Correct Manual Cut.

That Small, Interwoven Graphic Was Engraved Freehand To Indicate To The Press Workers That The Previous Master Was Discarded And That This Was The Correct, Approved, And Final One.
