This cassette has a different running order from the LP version (side 1, side 3, side 2, side 4) and three tracks missing (Ballad Of A Thin Man, One More Cup Of Coffee and Forever Young), even though the track listing and running order are listed on the insert as being exactly the same as the double LP. The running times of all the tracks as stated on the cassette insert are also different from the current CD, up to a difference of 40 seconds with The Times They Are A-Changin' - thanks to Ole Lien for information.

R-0163 Go 'Way Little Boy - Bob plays rhythm guitar on Lone Justice's version of one of his unreleased compositions (an out-take from Empire Burlesque,)
The lyrics have disappeared from bobdylan.com!

Go 'Way Little Boy (listed as Go Away Little Boy on some singles) is only available in its original form as a bonus track on the B-side of the UK, Dutch and Australian 12" singles (but not the American Geffen 12" single as confirmed by an owner). Manuel Garcia's copy of the UK 12" single (shown above) has a brown circular sticker with text  "Featuring Go 'Way Little Boy specially written by Bob Dylan". The second song on the UK and Australian B-sides is Pass It On, which is the B-side on the UK 7" single. I previously said that Bob may also have played harmonica on R-0163 - however, it's clearly stated on the 1999 and 2003 CD releases of the song listed below that the harmonica was played by Maria McKee. Thanks to Jean-Pol Hiernaux for pointing this out. It is rumoured that Lone Justice also recorded Clean-Cut Kid from Empire Burlesque at this session, again accompanied by Bob, but that performance remains unreleased.

The first song on the Dutch B-side is Don't Toss Us Away, with R-0163 as the second song. One copy of the Dutch 12" single shown has a sticker with text in German "Unverkäufliches Muster [Sample Not for Sale]" on the rear sleeve. This copy must have been exported to Germany as a promo. Manuel Garcia Jara also has a Spanish 7" single with R-0163 as the B-side, catalogue number and label scans required.

Thanks to Tim Dunn for information, to Hans Seegers for the long-awaited scans of the UK single, to Manuel Garcia Jara for scans of the Dutch 12" release (which explains the mystery catalogue number GEFA 12-6426), to Kenneth Robson for scans of a rare Australian promo release, and to Stuart Moore for scans of the commercial release, which has the same sleeve without the gold promo stamp.

R-0164 We Are the World (Michael Jackson-Lionel Ritchie) - Bob contributes vocals to charity single (6:22)
The B-side is Grace, an instrumental by Quincy Jones, who produced the single. For Q - The Musical Biography - a Quincy Jones 4CD US Rhino boxed set including this single, see 2001. R-0164 was also released as the B-side of a charity single by Voices Of America called Hands Across America, see 1986.

For an 3:00 edit (R-631) which is as far as I know unique to an Argentinean 7" promo single, see below.

The New Zealand release of the Australian 7" single, CBS BA 3275, has "Made in New Zealand" on the labels - the front sleeve design is the same as the US single above. Thanks to Hans Seegers for the additional information that the single on sale in New Zealand had the sleeve imported from Australia, but the record itself was made in New Zealand.

The Ecuadorian single is the only Dylan single ever released in Ecuador! For more information on the sleeve, see 7" Single Sleeves.

R-0632 We Are the World (Michael Jackson-Lionel Ritchie) - extended album version of R-0164 (7:02)
Ronald Born tells me this version starts with a fade-in, omitting the glockenspiel intro, and then fades out at the end. We Are The World is timed at 7:02 on this album and plays at 7:02.

The Japanese LP shown is a promo, with a "Sample" sticker on the rear sleeve and Japanese characters indicting a promo on the record labels. It has a blue/black/white obi with price ¥2,800. The date on the rear sleeve is "I-5-3" (3 May 1985). For an explanation of Japanese year code letters from 1985 to 1991 see International Albums (Regular). There is a four-page insert in English and Japanese and the record is in a clear plastic inner sleeve.

This test pressing is extremely rare and has a unique sleeve, as well as a white stock label with stamped catalogue number. The promo and commercial releases have orange CBS/Sony labels - the promo release is distinguished by the three Japanese characters in a box above the CBS/Sony logo on the right of the centre hole (as on the left on test pressing label).

Both sides of this single are the same, even though the labels do have separate numbers CSR 1351 A and CSR 1351 B.

Thanks to Alan Hoaksey for information and to Magnus Sjöberg for the scan.

R-0168-2 When The Night Comes Falling From the Sky - second edited version (4:18)

This rare promo single has white CBS labels and is blank on the B-side (several Spanish 7" promos are like this). It came with a compliments slip from Discos CBS S.A., Madrid.

R-0629 When The Night Comes Falling From the Sky - third edited version (4:18)
This is the same length but a completely different edit to R-0168 - see above. Here the song has the same intro as the LP version, not the "disco mix" intro, and has been cut down to the verses 1, 2, 3, 4, 9 and 10 (verses 2 and 3 replace 5 and 6). This alternate mix is unique to the UK and is very rare.

This was quickly replaced by:

R-0168-3 When The Night Comes Falling From the Sky - second edited version (also 4:18)
This is the same edit that was released in all the other countries listed on this page.

These two singles are physically identical - the only distinguishing feature is the matrix number on the vinyl itself: the single with R-0629 has matrix number A 6469-A1, the single with R-0168  has matrix number A 6469-A2!

Thanks to Hans Seegers for information and scans.

R-0168-4 When The Night Comes Falling From the Sky - second edited version (4:18)

The UK and Dutch singles have the same front sleeve but different rear sleeves. Also, the Dutch sleeve opens at the side, the UK sleeve opens at the top. Note the Dutch single has "new style" red labels, but the UK (above), Australian and New Zealand singles have the older style orange/yellow labels. Magne Karlstad has two mislabelled copies of CBS A 6469 - the first plays R-0168 on the A-side but has the A-side label for CBS A 6549, The Prophet by Dutch group The Prophet. The B-side label is correct. The second single has the correct label on the A-side, but the B-side label is again for CBS A 6549, Lorelei by The Prophet. It plays Dark Eyes correctly.

The Australian single came as a white label promo, and also a promo release with the commercial labels and a red promo stamp on the B-side. Three copies of the New Zealand single are shown - copy 1 has a "demonstration only" sticker on the A-side, copy 2 has the sticker on the B-side, and copy 3 is the commercial release without stickers. The Australian and New Zealand releases had no picture sleeves.

The 12" UK single with the same sleeve, CBS TA 6469, has the full album version of the song, along with Dark Eyes on the B-side, see US & International 7" & 12" Singles & EPs 1984-86.

Where front sleeves are not shown these are the same as the Dutch single. The B-side of the 7" single is Not So Far Away (Dub Version) by the Artists United Against Apartheid ensemble from the album below, but not including Bob.

The US promo 7" single and most worldwide 7" singles time the A-side at 4:58, but the US commercial and West German 7" singles time it at 5:09. Is this really a slightly extended mix?

This 12" promo single in a generic sleeve actually has the 4:58 single edit on both sides. The commercial 12" single listed below has the extended remix R-0611.

Thanks to Manuel Garcia Jara for information and scan.

R-0611 (Ain't Gonna Play) Sun City (The Last Remix) (Miami Steve Van Zandt) - 12" extended remix (9:37)

The B-side of the 7" and 12" single did not include Bob, nor did any of the other tracks on the album. The Canadian 12" sleeve has the sun on the front in pink rather than red. The UK 12" single came in either a picture sleeve of a generic Manhattan sleeve. The Japanese 12" single had a picture sleeve dated "I-12-5" (5 Dec 1985) and a red/white obi with price ¥1,400. For an explanation of Japanese year code letters from 1985 to 1991 see International Albums (Regular). There is a single-sided insert and the record is in a clear plastic inner sleeve.

There are two Australia/New Zealand 12" singles, Manhattan GOOD 95, which has R-0611 (9:37) on Side 1, and Manhattan ED-155, which has R-0171 (7:10) on Side 1. GOOD 95 was also sold in New Zealand.

The reverse of the LP sleeve is also black and white. The Australian/New Zealand LP is Manhattan ST 53019 as per the US LP, and also has the EMI text.

Thanks to Eduardo Gomez Kodela for information and to Hans Seegers, Kenneth Robson, Stuart Moore and Olav Langum for scans. Thanks to Wil Gielen for scans of the Japanese LP, which has a black/white obi with red/white/black text and price ¥2,800. The release date is given as "I-11-27" (27 Nov 1985).

This Argentinean promo single is unique in that it has the album version from Side 2 (5:42) as the A-side, not the single version (4:58). The B-side is an unrelated track by an Argentinean artist. It has dark-yellow promo stamps on both labels with text "VENTA PROHIBIDA PROMOCIONAL" (sale forbidden promotional).
