    I buyed my copy still sealed but the cover is in a very bad condition. It seems like the cover is not perfectly cutted and it becomes rounded and deformed. Really bad. So sad about it.

      Definitely NOT an unofficial release: Akarma is a serious italian label specialized in 70's reissues. To be clear: often Japanese label as Belle Antique simply reissues Akarma ones! Please, fix this edition!

        My copy is not a textured trifold, has no bar code and is definitely from 2002 and not 2012...

          Always had bad sibilance with the vocals on this Lp...
          Wonder if that sibilance is on the original neon Lp.
          I have a dando shaft on a us neon and there is sibilance on the vocals on that Lp...
          Suspect original pressings perhaps just carried over on the rip from cd...

            Wonder how these compare to the first press. Probably sourced from CD like usual, but might still sound decent. Especially with the extra side to spread tu music out on.

              My copy doesn't have an externally textured sleeve, is this a later Akarma release? Any ideas?

                when I first open my copy to check it, I have noticed both LPs, moderately warped, probably due to the trifold cover irregularities. I call sellers that sell mint copies (almost everyone in the market place) to check accordingly. also the wholes are very narrow for my Project Excellence II turntable, but adequate for my old Lenco. Records do not skip due to the above mentioned warping.
