Notes

Pressed by Allied Record Company due to embossed A visible at 10 o' clock on Side A and 11 o' clock on Side B.

('SPAR/SP-AR' in the runouts also means it was plated at Specialty but the record itself was actually pressed at Allied).

Issued in a gatefold with custom cardstock inner sleeve.

Some copies the disc may be translucent (hold up to a bright light and you can see through it).

Runouts are all etched.
