The Clerk knows this whole record — the pressing quirks, the credits, the take.
Sound DNA
- Rock
Original issue comes in gatefold cover and attached English booklet. Finnish booklet included. No copyright texts round the label.
Eighties reissue doesn´t have gatefold cover and lyric insert, copyright text round the label.
Svart Records made reissue 2014 as 2LP. First album is original mix, second remix from 2001. In 1974 members of Wigwam thought mixing didn´t go as they wanted, because lots of overdubbing and limitation of technology that time. Album was released as black, pink & yellow vinyls with gatefold cover and booklet.
