Notes:

℗ 1977 A Warner Communications Company (back cover, labels)
© 1977 A Warner Communications Company (back cover, labels)

The album cover is in an non-gloss, untextured form (unlike some other versions of this release) with cream coloured labels with stripes and the  'Warner Records' logo. The back cover ('Sleeve printed and made in England by Gothic Print Finishers Ltd. London SE9 2EQ') also identifies that this version of the album is 'A Warner Bros. Recording distributed by WEA Records Ltd., ℗ & © 1977 (Warner Bros logo) A Warner Communications Company.'.

The album's Catalogue number (K56344) is shown without a space on the back cover but with a space (K 56344) on the LPs' labels. Also on the back cover is a secondary catalogue number (BSK 3010) which is similarly shown on the labels.

Some issues of this release contained  a 11" x 22", four page lyric/credit insert. There are 5 other UK 'repress' versions of this album which are similar to this release. These are shown below together with an indication as to the differences between them and this version. It may be that some could benefit from merging. 

[r=12004401 also has cream coloured label with stripes but has a glossy, non-textured sleeve with the vinyl itself containing different matrix/runout entries. [r=11212366 too has cream coloured labels with stripes and is issued in a untextured cover. It does, however, have different Matrix/Runout information on both sides A and B of the vinyl.

[r=10126845 was issued in a textured cover but was printed in Germany. It also has different vinyl labels in a coloured, 'Burbank' artwork format. [r=9309141 was issued with 11" x 22" foldout lyric/credit/photo insert and in a smooth cover. This release could, maybe, benefit from a merge with some of the others listed here. Finally, [r=8375672 was issued in a textured cover with the 4 page lyric/credit insert but has very different labels attached to the vinyl.
