Is My Body Electric 7'' Single a Fake?

I've checked around, and I've not found a single page on the internet about Body Electric fakes and how to spot them (assuming they even exist). Was wondering if any of you dedicated collectors could take a look at my Body Electric and lemme know if there's anything off about it? Thanks!!

Your single looks original. Pink cover version.

Some so-called Australian re-issues exist coming with red vinyls and a "2009" print on the otherwise similar cover.

There are also some Greek so-called Body Electric singles with different content and different covers.

It's a fake. Out of sympathy I'll take off your hands for £5.00 inc postage.

Run out grooves are usually one way to spot a fake. This one should have "Rise and Reverberate" on one side, "For Spiggy" on the other, and "Bilbo Tape One" and the catalogue number on both.
