Notes

Abridged version.

Australian WRC 2nd pressing, sourced from original stampers and featuring unique sleeve art. Mono and stereo versions have same number on back of sleeve (LS/23) - the mono version has "LS-23" on the label, while the stereo has "SLS-23". The stereo was issued with a small "S" sticker on the front of the sleeve, and the mono has a red "mono" sticker (without a stereo rosette underneath, however) on the back (though these tend to drop off with age). Includes 16 page 12"x9" booklet. The addresses on the rear of the sleeve have been updated.
