Notes

Unique Italian picture sleeve.
Front and back covers are the same apart from text in the bottom right hand corner of the back: "U. Pinto. Roma. 1-73 / Made in Italy".
The cover blurb (in Italian) is factually incorrect: domain is more correctly U.K. rather than England and the highest chart position this reached there was number 2 not the number one spot as claimed per the official U.K. chart at the time.

Side A: Vaudeville Music Ltd. Produced for Mainman A Mainman Production
Side B: Tantric Music. A Gem Production

On labels: 1/73 ℗
