Reviews

  • RadioTowerRecords's avatar
    I have this exact England/Italy combination as well; my copy purchased in the UK 1977 probably around December. Maybe there was a supply deficit at the time so stocks of the LP were imported?

      This copy was pressed in Rome and exported to the UK on release in 1977. It has a UK sleeve coupled with Italian pressed vinyl.
