Also known as "The Sun Myth" on some releases, named for the first track.
According to Geerken/Trent's Omniverse, there are three distinct mixes of The Sun Myth:
Version one has African voices very audible throughout and "ESP 1017A 152 DBH" in the runout of side A.
Version two has no voices and "ESP 1017-A ORT-2 DBH" in the side A runout.
Version three as the voices mixed very low, audible at the beginning and end with "ESP 1017A(68) AM967 DBH" in the runout.
Version two seems to have become the standard for later reissues.
