    This is one of those particular records where an original vinyl pressing is the natural format --the music really breathes here!

      Mine has the red labels but with “promotion - Not For Sale” sticker on bottom right.

      Some water got on labels while I was cleaning the vinyl and got red ink on my fingers. That happen to anybody else?
