Should be TCD-74. 20th Century 12" numbers began at TCD-50 with Eleventh Hour's "Hollywood Hot". The 12" pictured above is a third and later 12" commercial release of "Contact', however containing the initial release of the B side. "Contact" was first issued by 20th Century on 12" as TCD-69, then again as TCD-73 b/w Gene Chandler's "Get Down". A few other 20th Century 12" titles also had more than one issue, most notably "Get Down", Starr's "H.A.P.P.Y Radio" and the Impressions' "Sorry", just confusing the lot of us to no end.
