Notes:

1st pressing with pink "i" label, unlaminated cover and without Traffic 'symbol' on the left side of the centre labels.

Outside cover uses a kraft paper background with silk-screened graphics instead of a burlap sack background with printed graphics as seen in some US and later versions.
Gatefold cover. Inside gatefold shows full-spread colour image of the band.

On runout variant 3, the stamping "AudioMatrix" is almost illegible, but it is visible. (See: [l288546)

Note that versions with Side A runout "ILPS + 9116 + A4" is a mispressing, with Track A3 cutting out abruptly at 4:33. (See: [r8907269)
