Singles

 
Starting with the 1983 re-release of “White Wedding”, Chrysalis issued Billy’s singles with an IDOL vanity catalogue numbering system, much like Nine Inch Nails’s halo numbering system. This lasted for roughly seven years and sixteen singles (including various re-issues) until the release of “Prodigal Blues” in 1990.
