Belgian 7" discography / EPs 
Decca Belgium did not print covers for every release, therefore 'Heart Of Stone' [457.066], 'Satisfaction' [457.086] and 'Mother's Little Helper' [457.122] were only available into French imported PS.

'19th Nervous Breakdown' [Decca 450.206], out in early 1966, is the only unique Belgian EP in terms of cover, tracklisting and catalogue number. It compiles the single of the same name with the US B-side of 'As Tears Go By' and the then rare track 'Surprise, Surprise' - only available on a US album at the time. Such a 'Surpise'! as cover misspells.
This EP is one of the rarest Rolling Stones EP in the world. For a long time mis-included into the French discography by French magazine 'Jukebox', it has become la "bête noire" of many collectors.
Eventually, 'Mother's Little Helper' is the latest of the French cover / Belgian pressing combinations. Very few were made as the single already had eaten most of the EP market and it is also quite hard-to-find.
The first EP 'Carol' [Decca 457.036] has a unique cover - different from the Dutch and French versions of the same catalogue number and tracklisting - it is nearly impossible to find nowadays in any condition.
'It's All Over Now' [Decca 457.039] used a similar design than France and Holland - same number and tracklisting also - but opted for different pictures. Two versions exist with minor differences on back cover and labels.
Besides the initial use of a French cover - missing month and year information on back for that purpose, a Belgian-only picture sleeve was made for the EP 'If You Need Me' [Decca 457.043] - same as the UK '5x5' EP but missing '2120 South Michigan Avenue' as its export version SDE 7501. Incidentally, this rare blue Belgian cover misspells 'Confess I' The Blues' on rear and B-side label lists the tracks in wrong sequence!

|---|---|---|
| type I |  |
original [until 1965 with 'Get Off Of My Cloud' - LU 26.019] |
| type II |  |
Decca is on the left-hand side of the labels - 1965 - 1966 |
'Time Is On My Side' [Decca 457.050] also bears French & Dutch catalogue numbers and tracklistings - B-side sequence only differs - with a unique Belgian PS.
The two next EPs are simply dressed in original French PS, while 'Got Live If You Want It!' is out with the export number SDE 7502, sharing a Dutch cover which does not mention any country of manufacture - and miss the extra green sticker used in Holland.
'Get Off Of My Cloud' [Decca 457.092] copies its French neighbour but is 100% Belgian with a unique back cover - a great live shot. Strangely, the same year is released the Belgian version of the British export EP SDE 7503, putting out 'She Said Yeah' and 'Gotta Get Away' for the second time on EP in 1965. These two EPs show the complexity of the Belgian discography, trying to be independent while heavily influenced by its neighbours production.
