      It seems that there is a general issue with this release as the copy i have received was warped as well.

        Does anyone know if this version also has the label misprint for track 3. Dewel. On the record it's listed as Da-Wol

          It seems hard to believe that all "reissues" are legitimate. There is no indication of the reissuing label, no copyrights or licensing whatsoever. Unless Worthy Records still issuing the record with exact the same artwork since 1972, which is quite unlikely to happen.
          Moreover the mastering is quite poor, the sound is flat with no dynamic, regardless the fact that the record is pressed on 180gram. My copy looks 100% as a typical bootleg. Record is also warped. Beware.
