Daryl Hall & John Oates - Private Eyes (1981, New Zealand Pressing)

1981 New Zealand pressing, RCA Victor APL1 4028

This New Zealand issue of Private Eyes carries the catalog number APL1 4028 in place of the US AFL1-4028, which survives on the labels only as the side codes AFL1 4028A and AFL1 4028B. Manufacture and distribution are credited to RCA Limited, the company's Australian and New Zealand arm, rather than to RCA Records in New York.

The object

A single LP on RCA Victor labels headed Side 1 and Side 2. The back cover prints APL1 4028 in the RCA Victor box and states that the album was made from masters of RCA Records.

Context

Private Eyes was first issued in the US in 1981 as AFL1-4028, and this pressing dates from that same year. Daryl Hall and John Oates produced the album, with Neil Kernon as co-producer.

The album

The album page for Private Eyes, the record that carried I Can't Go For That (No Can Do), covers the album itself.
