    I have an RCA Music Service pressing, however it appears to be pressed by Allied, not SRC.

    Matrix / Runout (Side A runout): 1-25110-A-SH3 [Allied 'ɑ' logo] B-19421-SH3 SLM △6851 1-1 SM1-5 0-7 R-160175 A SH-SP
    Matrix / Runout (Side B runout): 1-25110-B-SH8 [Allied 'ɑ' logo] B-19422-SH8 SLM △6851-X SP03 R-160175 B 1-4 SH-SP

    The mastering and pressing is great, btw, despite being a club edition. Even with the groove wear on my copy, the dynamics shine through. It seems likely the same BG mastering. I'm thinking about picking up a cleaner copy of the SRC pressing (as that appears the only club pressing listed), but my existing copy is hard to let go.
