FAQ

Is this the original pressing?
Yes. This is the 1970 German first edition on Ohr with catalogue number OMM 56007. Later reissues include a 2009 LP and a remastered edition from 2023.

What is a cut out hole?
A cut out is a small hole or notch punched into the sleeve, used by labels and dealers to mark deleted or returned stock. It does not affect the record but is taken into account when grading the sleeve.

What does Media VG+ / Cover VG mean?
VG+ (Very Good Plus) means the record shows light signs of play that barely affect listening. VG (Very Good) means the sleeve shows clear wear, here storage wear and the cut out hole. All grades are explained on our Vinyl Grading page.

Do you have more records on Ohr?
Yes, for example Ash Ra Tempel – Schwingungen and Tangerine Dream – Atem, both German original pressings. More titles are in our Krautrock collection.
