Notes:
Note: The "Pee Wee Breakfast Mix" is unique to this promo release. This mix and the "F.L.U. Midnight Mix" are dub / instrumental versions of the other two tracks on the release.
This release features a marble-like pattern in the vinyl. It was issued in a plain white sleeve with holes to expose the record's labels. Strangely, the record does not have Savage Garden's name on it. Richard Kirk, who contributed detailed information on this release, has observed that without Savage Garden's name, the record is of very limited use as a promotional item, especially for a group's first single. He further observes that the absence of the group's name could be explained if the item was a test pressing for use by Roadshow only, but there appear to be a few copies in existence - far more than would be pressed for internal use. Additionally, vinyl test pressings are commonly done on acetate, not colored vinyl. This seems far too elaborate for an internal promo.
Further info provided by lawcamtonmoozik (thanks!):
Some pressing plants used purged polymers to press records which created marbleizing when extruding out a colour favouring black or the other way around. It is likely to be legitimate although each pressing is unlikely to be absolutely identical.
This promo does not initially appear to have a catalog number, but etched in the run-out groove of side A is "ML 10338-A", and on side B, “ML 10338-B.” According to kixfm6, MLxxxxx is the sequential numbering system used by Corduroy Records (2).
