Is this really the first time this album was released on CD?

Images shown here have a blue/gray cast. The background on my copy is a tan/sand color. Better color than that shown. Interesting graphics. of the gorilla-guerilla.

Imho this is not from an analog source. The sound is harsh and awfull. The pressing I got was also full of scuffs and marks. Avoid! The sticker is only there to mislead people. This is a great album but sounds ghastly on this issue!

ever pressed..
Peace
