Notes
Issued in gatefold sleeve without barcode. Printed inner sleeve. Labels feature an EastWest logo in addition to the Merciful Release logo, as well as GEMA / BIEM rights societies.
Most likely a repress because of the LC1557 price code and the EastWest logos on labels, which were not present on the original European pressings.
Different versions of this release exist:
UK Gatefold: no barcode, LC4281 on labels UK Picture sleeve: no barcode, LC4281 on labels, WE381 price code on back sleeve UK Picture sleeve: no barcode, LC4281 on labels, WE321 price code on back sleeve EU Gatefold: no barcode, GEMA/BIEN & LC4281 on labels EU Gatefold (repress) =>this release: no barcode, GEMA/BIEN + LC1557 + EW logo on labels EU Picture sleeve: no barcode, GEMA/BIEN & LC4281 on labels EU Picture sleeve: barcode, GEMA/BIEN & LC4281 on labels (likely a repress since a barcode was added to the sleeve)
