I've been sorting some old 12" singles out tonight and found I have a one I never realized was so scarce
to save me scanning it right now here is a link to the same one I have on Discogs Come On Let's Go WL/TP
I must have just filed it away at the time as I had the album but it has an unusual B side to say the least!
scan of the Come On Let's Go promo/press release, anyone know more about why they put Nirvana tracks on the B side
and The Who on the A? Oddly enough both these tracks play at 33rpm while the Broadcast tracks at 45rpm on the same side of the disc.

are The Who and Nirvana tracks are on the outside of each side? if so, the notes on the discogs page explain it in a cryptic way: re-use of laquers - presumably the Broadcast was meant to be a 45RPM 7" re-using the blank space in the middle, and then record plant cock-up incorrectly pressing it as a 12".
catnum starts with a "7", so looks likely it was meant to be a 7"
yes they are, at the start of each side -then there is a plain dead wax gap then the Broadcast tracks
which as I mentioned play at a different speed on the same side

so the 12" laquers already had the Who/Nirvana tracks at 33RPM on the outside and to save money they re-used the blank middle sections to put the Broadcast single, intending to press just the middle section as a 7" release
makes it interesting from a copyright point of view! putting out other people's material on your promo...
