Item Description

Vinyl, , 53-Keel Pressing
LP Album Reissue Stereo

Number 0518 printed in lower back left corner and 0704 on the right back corner, just above Polydor logo. INTL #2391 190 printed on either side of disc just below cat #.

This release has two distinct pressing rings. Outer @ 70mm. Inner @ 30mm.
"K" etched in runouts denotes that [l294000] had pressed this release.

For Keel, the two-step ring started around 1979. So, both single & double pressing rings
have been used by Keel through 1980 and even some of 1981.
This particular record was released between 1979 & '81.

This label variant is similar to [r8165381] in that they both have "53"
printed on labels in white ink. Although they're both [l294000]
pressed releases, they differ in pressing rings.

A similar label variant [r6013341], also has "53" printed on labels.
However, it's printed in black ink, but shares the two-step pressing rings.
That label variant was a [l277410] pressed release.
