Notes

The B-side label of the 7" single mistakenly lists Thunderwing as the first song, followed by Lady. The correct playing order is Lady, then Thunderwing. Digital s and CD editions of the single perpetuate the original error, as Thunderwing now plays before Lady.

Made in Gt Britain.
Runouts are stamped, except for the parts "Bobil" and "AUNTY.B" which are etched.

    This and MARC 11 (Dreamy Lady) are oddities in the Bolan collectors market as they were never released as demo copies
