This release features two different centre hole variants due to a change in manufacturing practices in Japan around 1972.

Up until the early ’70s, most Japanese 7″ singles were pressed with a push-out tri-centre. Around 1972, plants (mainly Victor) began switching to a large round centre (known in Japan as a “donut” centre). Since “Changes” was released right during this transition, both versions exist.
