Double LP, single sleeve, with LP-sized 4 page insert.

Very good BYG compilation with a well informed interesting booklet containing several Gong related tracks. A fine slab of collectable vinyl produced by knowledgeable folk who seem to care about the music, but unfortunately licensed from the usual culprits who don't give a fig, or a cent for that matter.

I imagine this to be a single pressing of 1000 copies..
