Singles detailsRespectable Street (Andy Partridge) Respectable Street [single version] / Strange Tales, Strange Tails; Officer Blue*
Notes The fourth and last single from the album Black Sea is an edited version of the opening number on the LP. Here it is truncated by the removal of the intro that sounded as if a scratched record were being played. The playing time printed on the label (3.37) is that of the album version; this is 30 seconds shorter than that. The single version also features Terry's yelling at the beginning of verse three. Side B consists of two older recordings. Recording Data "Respectable Street" produced by Steve Lillywhite. Originally recorded during the Black Sea sessions.
