FAQ

Is this the original pressing?
Yes – the 1971 German edition on Philips (6397 031). It can be identified by the boxed "D" behind the cat. no. at the top right, "Printed in Germany" at the bottom left of the sleeve and "Made in Germany" on the label; the back cover layout differs from the French edition.

Who composed the pieces?
Side A is by Christian Vander, "Iss" Lanseï Doïa by Teddy Lasry and Ki Ïahl Ö Lïahk by François Cahen.

What does Media VG+ / Sleeve VG+ with cut-out mean?
VG+ (Very Good Plus) means light signs of use that barely affect sound or appearance. The cut-out corner is a clipped corner from the deletion/remainder trade. See our Vinyl Grading guide.
