FAQ

Is this the original pressing?
No – this is the third edition (reissue). The first edition from 1981 was still distributed by Rip Off Vertrieb.

How do I recognise the third edition?
By distribution through EFA, label code LC 9283 and no barcode; the matrix reads "76.26174-01-1 H1" / "76.26174-01-2 H1". Later editions were distributed by Indigo and carry a barcode.

What does Media close to NM- / sleeve VG+ mean?
The record is almost like new with only minimal marks. VG+ for the sleeve means light signs of wear, here with some wear. More at Vinyl Grading.
