Tracklisting

Love Fading [4:04]
For Noriko [4:03]

Notes

Released by the major Japanese label Tokuma (and not a fan club issue as previously described. Dedications was available in regular record shops in Japan for Yen 700. Features fold-out lyrics / picture insert.

The Japanese title on a purple background reads "SASAGEMONO" which means Dedication in English.

Back cover reads (in English): "This music is dedicated to Japan for the love, friendship and beauty we found here and will never forget."

A further, handwritten (by Vini) message reads: "This is a message - written in my hotel room - we have to leave in a few hours for England and we're very sad that it's the end of our tour. I just wanted to personally say thank you to all the people who came and listened to our music - thank you for all the kindness and friendship we found here, it's been great and I want to return here soon. To all those who gave us their applause - we give you our applause - we'll never forget our time here - with lots of love. Vini. x.x."

Noriko was The Durutti Column's Japanese tour manager.
