The release comes in a gatefold cover. It is the actual first release in Germany from 1973. The Bronze-labelled release is a later re-release.

Inconsistencies:
The cover lists 'Manfred Mann and Earthband' as the producer, the label only 'Manfred Mann'.

Track titles are different on the cover (rear) and the centre labels in some details. Given in the tracklisting are the titles as printed on the cover (rear). Differences for the centre labels are:
Track A2: In The Beginning
Track B2: Saturn/Mercury
Track B3: Earth: The Circle (Part 2)
Track B4: Earth: The Circle (Part 1)
