Notes

As was the case with the initial UK pressing on Duophonic, this vinyl set had one white disk (sides A/B) and one marbled blue-green disk (sides C/D) housed in green & white inner sleeves and presented in a single jacket outer sleeve. Jacket lacks a bar code. Another edition exists with two different colored inner sleeves here: Dots And Loops
