Notes
Exact same pressing as: Elton John - Madman Across The Water and Elton John - Madman Across The Water
but has black labels with silver DJM logo and lettering.
Comes in gatefold sleeve including 11-page lyric book attached to the inside.
Sleeve comes in a textured paper fake jeans artwork.
When held up to the light the vinyl appears a Ruby Red colour, this is due to the vinyl formulation used by Tranco Limited.
