Notes

Labels differ from other releases in that titles are printed in English (see images). There is some confused mixture of Russian and English, e.g., the text Государственный Гимн above the English title on Side 1 simply reads 'National Anthem', suggesting, perhaps that the English text has been pasted over the Russian from the Master release somewhat carelessly, leaving only the first line of the original Russian text of the title, rather than the full title in Russian .
The rear of the cover also has slight differences from the Master release, notably the English text 'Made in USSR' in the bottom right corner.

Track 1 of each side is a choral version, with tracks 2 & 3 being full-length and abbreviated orchestral (instrumental) versions.
