I don't know what type of pressing this is. It's either an original 3rd pressing (maybe 2nd) or an early reissue. Note how the Tommy Boy address (on the label) is different on this pressing compared with the orange label pressing.

Run-out groove has:
Side A: "TB-823-A HERbIE JR Hi ANgIE AND WINKY ''IT'S A Hi POWERED DISCO 12" Vinni Vini SMK"
Side B: "TB-823-B HERbIE JR ''ELECTRIC BREAKS'' Vinni Vini SMK"

Both sides also has the Frankford wayne stamp: "MASTERING BY FRANKFORD/WAYNE NEW YORK"

Classic record from one of the legendary hip hop pioneers. Uses a sample from Kraftverk. The Tommy Boy address on the label indicates this was released in the early 80's. This is the first pressing with the orange label. Later pressings had blue (or green-ish blue) labels.

Side A: "TB-823-A HERbIE JR Hi ANgIE AND WINKY ''IT'S A Hi POWERED DISCO 12" SMK"
