Reviews
Despite the date is 1964, wich make let you think this edition is from the sixties, this edition is from the eighties. It is easy to identify: the Angel label is the golden one, with an angel looking up at the clouds. Angel label of 1964 was blue with a large "Angel" script (see vinylbeats.com). So for this edition, 1964 is the recording date only.
