    Mine has the German edition matrix (Speaking In Tongues) but the Sacem on the label, and a "44F00" price sticker on the back cover, clearly meaning it was sold in (francs).

      I think this issue was sold in and as well due to the price codes for both contries on the back cover - I bought my copy 1983 in , regardless of the fact that no GEMA is listed on the label, SACEM SDRM SACD SGDL only.

        Mine has a sticker "Le nouveau Talking Heads" on front over the name of the band.
