Description
Label: United Artists Records UAG 29202 Notes - Early pressing
Matrix / Runout (Variant 1, side A, stamped): UAG 29202 A-1U
Matrix / Runout (Variant 1, side B, stamped): UAG 29202 B-4U
Different label layout from X In Search Of Space (A1U / B1U, A1U/B2U matrixes); different fonts, "STEREO" further from the edge of the label and with a wider font.
This release has an innovative 8-page, 3-fold die-cut heavy card sleeve. Opened out, it forms a 'T' shape. This shape is printed black & white on inside and full-color on reverse.
When the lower page is folded up (to contain the liner) the sleeve then takes the form of a 6-page triptych - with the die-cut tab & slot linking together at the center. When locked 'closed' the liner/vinyl can still be inserted via the top opening.
The back cover has a blurred shot of Stacia dancing on-stage, with text that encapsulates the essence of the work:
"Technicians of Space Ship Earth
This is Your Captain Speaking
Your Captain is Dead"
"Printed and made by the E. J. Day Group, London and Bedford".
[The inside spread photos include members of The Pink Fairies].
The package also contains an A4, 24-page 'Log Book', packed with the minutiae of the band's 'flight' through space & time. This 'Log' is printed black on white 'newspaper-quality' paper.
Produced at Olympic Studios, Barnes. Track B2 first recorded at Air Studios.

VINYL CONDITION:

SLEEVE CONDITION:

A very light crease to top right and minimal spine wear - some of the black has flecked to white as invariably happens anyway but this is being hyper critical and all typeface is clear. All typeface and edges sharp and clean. No folds or attempts made to lock the die cut tab - all clean and intact.
