NOTE

The album was first released in February 1975 by Apple Records (PCS 7169).

This budget reissue appeared in late November 1981. The cover has been significantly changed (see scans).

The inner sleeves could be of various types. The page shows the most common type associated with the Type 1 labels.

Along with this, inner sleeves manufactured by DRG (Dickinson Robinson Group) were also used. They say "Made in Great Britain" in the middle, patent number on the right, DRG logo on the left. Also, variations in the location of the text at the bottom of the cover are also possible. But they are less common and mostly came with Type 2 labels that were released later in the late 80s.

The following type of inner sleeves carry the "Made in Great Britain" patent number and do not carry the DRG logo. Presumably, they were manufactured by H.S. (Harrison and Sons Ltd.).

It is important to remember that factory inner sleeves may pre-date a record it houses by several months, up to half a year. These sleeves could spend a long time at a warehouse before being actually used.

A very small batch of LPs with Type 2 labels were pressed in 1989, most probably. They came with DRG Malago inner sleeves having round-cut comers, no holes and no inner lining, dated 3/89.

The labels had two types of design:
Type 1 - standard MFP design;
Type 2 - later MFP design.

ПРИМІТКА

Уперше альбом вийшов у лютому 1975 року на лейблі Apple Records (PCS 7169).

Це бюджетне перевидання з'явилося наприкінці листопада 1981 року. Обкладинку було значно змінено (див. скани).

Внутрішні пакети могли бути різних типів. На сторінці показано найпоширеніший тип, пов'язаний з етикеткою Тип 1.

Поряд із цим використовувались і пакети виробництва DRG (Dickinson Robinson Group). На них посередині написано "Made in Great Britain", праворуч номер патенту, ліворуч логотип DRG. Також, можливі й варіації розташування тексту внизу обкладинки. Але вони зустрічаються рідше і здебільшого йшли з платівками, що мають етикетки Тип 2, які випускалися пізніше наприкінці 80-х.

Внутрішні пакети наступного типу мають номер патенту, напис "Made in Great Britain" і не мають логотипу DRG. Імовірно, їх виготовляла компанія H.S. (Harrison and Sons, Ltd.).

Важливо пам'ятати, що заводський внутрішній пакет може передувати платівці, що зберігається в ньому, на кілька місяців, аж до півроку. Ці пакети могли довгий час лежати на складі, перш ніж їх задіяли.

Найімовірніше, 1989 року було надруковано дуже невелику партію платівок з етикетками Тип 2. Вони поставлялися з внутрішніми пакетами DRG Malago із закругленими кутами, без отворів і внутрішньої підкладки, датовані 3/89.

Етикетки мали дизайн двох типів:
Тип 1 — стандартний дизайн MFP;
Тип 2 — пізніший дизайн MFP.
