Notes

Version with red title lettering on front cover and red catalog number on back of booklet. The booklet uses the original LP artwork in which 'CD' does not appear in the catalog number on the back LP cover. This can be seen because red type on the back of the booklet is slightly offset. The CD is the same as other first pressings, just the booklet is different.

Track 3 is listed in the booklet and on the CD as " For Whom The Bell Tolls " and on the back of the booklet and the back cover as " For Whom The Bells Toll " . This transposition is common on early pressings.
