Is this pressing Canadian?  I don't remember there being a US 12" for
"The Big Sky" but [V-xxxxx] is the standard EMI catalog-number format
for 12"ers on *this* side of the pond.  The US "Cloudbusting" is
V-19258, which would, in a more perfect world, imply that your "Big
Sky" 12" predates it . . . huh!

EMI: Get these mixes out on CD, you pathetic dweebs!  (Actually, if
"Be Kind To My Mistakes" really turns up on the next CD-single, I'll
stop whining for awhile.)
