Notes

"A CONCERT DISC / EVEREST recording, released exclusively in Australia by the Record Society."

Australian WRC pressing for The Record Society. The LP is housed in the right side of the textured gatefold sleeve, with the sleeve opening inside at the centre. The back of the gatefold flap is blank. Mono and stereo versions have same number on the inner side of the gatefold (S/6179) - the mono version has "6179" on the brown 'herald' labels, while the stereo has "S-6179". The spine has "RS 6179". The stereo version has a printed "stereo" rosette on the back, and the mono has a red sticker with "mono" placed over this (though these tend to drop off with age).
