As vinyl records had lost their position as the ultimate means of music publication for the masses to the then most popular CD formats,
only two releases on vinyl were issued. A re-release was issued by Warner Music UK Ltd in 2018 in the course of their general reissues of Sisters releases.

Sixteen (16) officially released cassettes and two (2) promo tapes have so far surfaced - apart from a further eight bootlegs, some of which with a shortened track list.
