The actual first UK release of this album was pressed in the USA by Atlantic Records at Speciality Records Corporation (only first pressings of this title have SRC's logo after the machine stamped matrix numbers, the large S with R and C in the loops) and must have -G stampers both sides. These discs were imported back into the UK and housed in the UK first edition sleeve with the catalogue number K53501 on rear and spine and Manticore Records logo distributed by WEA Records Ltd on rear (only UK issues were housed in this sleeve) This 1st pressing was released on November 19, 1973 in both the US and the UK at the same time, later issues were printed with a Manticore/WEA catalogue number and are pressed on thinner vinyl. Original pressing comes in a fold out sleeve and with a poster.

AUDIO TEST: NEAR MINT
Many of the tracks on this album have complex compositions and most tracks have passages of loud strong audio, the occasional brief static tics are noted, and these are very brief such as the intros. The vinyl delivers the expected audio quality, and overall the albums audio could be considered as stunning.
INSERT: NEAR MINT
The clean, free of wear
