my pressing has a "for demonstration use only not for sale" sticker in the lower left hand corner. Was this a different pressing? i cannot find an entry for promo copy or anything like that

...like harry partch & sun ra, moondog belongs to the legendary figures
in american music. moondog (1916-99) alias louis hardin was blind since an
explosion in his childhood. one of his first compositions "all is
loneliness" (51) was covered by janis joplin in 1968. "moondog" (69) was
recorded with an impressive 5o piece orchestra. this music is deeply
impressive & moving, without being pathetic for a second. powerful, proud &
purely magic. a timeless mix of classical music, jazz & avantgarde...

Mine is exactly the same matrix/runout, but has the 6-eyed label gray/orange. BTW - great musician, great album, great sound!
