Joan of Arc is slightly longer than the 7" version and is identical to the version featured on the 1981 album Architecture & Morality.

The sleeve design is very different from the 7" release and was  printed on textured card.

As with the 7" releases, some copies of Joan Of Arc also featured a silver/grey sticker on the front stating the band's full name.

 

The signature used on the sleeve is actually Joan Of Arc's own signature. It was used to sign a letter while she was in prison in 1431.

The chords used on Joan Of Arc are from a Prophet 5 and the choral effects are Andy McCluskey singing falsetto(!)
