Rio

Written by cdcafe on .

3rd edition, [l2564] label, l313656 pressing.
“Hungry Like The Wolf” is the “Night Version” mixed by Colin Thurston, all other tracks on Side A are the so-called “US Mixes” remixed by David Kershenbaum. Remix credits had been added to the inner sleeve, compared to 2nd edition.

[Note on the different US releases of ‘Rio’:]
All ‘Rio’ lacquers, cut in-contract by TML and Precision Mastering, show a “Z” in the runout matrix and had been consecutively numbered.
Except Z-1 and Z-4, the numbering system counts A- and B-side lacquers separately and was used for all three album variants.
By these Z-numbers, the pressing plant, the album variant and the side of the record can be identified:
A1 Rio 5:28
A2 My Own Way 4:36
A3 Lonely In Your Nightmare 4:52
A4 Hungry Like The Wolf 5:14
A5 Hold Back The Rain 6:32
