Notes

"An ELECTROLA recording, released exclusively in Australia by The Record Society."

Australian WRC pressing for The Record Society. The LP is housed in the right side of the gatefold, with the sleeve opening inside at the centre. Mono and stereo versions have the same sleeve - the mono version has "6206" on labels, while the stereo has "S-6206". The stereo version has a printed "stereo" rosette on the back, and the mono has a red sticker with "mono" placed over this (though these tend to drop off with age). "S/6206" on back and inner, "RS 6206" on spine.
