From my personal collection, this is the VERY RARE original 1978 pressing on LTM &  Boží Mlýn Productions.  According to what I can piece together, this rare import was recorded in Czechoslovakia, produced in France, pressed in Ireland, and printed in England.  I bought this used in about 1984, I think.  The vinyl is play graded solid VG+, with just a little minor surface noise here and there.  I listened to this in its entirety recently, and it sounds fantastic.  The cover is EX, with just a little minor edge/spine/corner wear and laminate separation in a small area of upper right front cover.  INCLUDES THE EXPANSIVE BOOKLET, which is also in fantastic shape, as well as a photocopy of a concert poster.  Please see the hi-res photos for the general lay of the land.  I need to clear out some space, so this gem is in search of a new home.  You'll be hard-pressed to find a more solid copy of this pressing at any price!
