FAQ

Is this the original pressing?
Yes – it is the German edition from the year of release, 1973, on Brain with catalogue number 1037 in a gatefold sleeve. Check label and sleeve in the scans.

How can I recognise early krautrock originals?
Label colour, logo, catalogue number and the matrix in the run-out all give clues. Read our guide Krautrock rarities: how to spot original pressings.

What does Media VG+ / sleeve VG mean?
VG+ (Very Good plus) means the record shows light signs of use that barely affect listening. VG (Very Good) for the sleeve means more noticeable wear on an intact sleeve. More in our vinyl grading guide.
