[Notes concerning this particular album, its various versions, and pressings]:
This album came with incorrect tracks' duration, varying from version to version, and from pressing to pressing. There are 4 different versions (editions) of this album.
The most significant difference is the listed track duration of 'Nightflight To Venus':
- 1st pressing with 7:11 min
- 2nd pressing with 5:55 min
- 3rd pressing with 4:58 min
- 4th pressing with 4:46 min (as on back cover, this release), as the final and most common one. Some versions have no indication of a 4:46 min duration, but can be recognized by their runout matrix (as here).
This final, fourth, version of "Nightflight To Venus" was released with various variations. Mainly, inconsistencies related to tracks' duration printed on covers vs. tracks' duration printed on labels, exemplary for the tracks A1 / A2:
- 4:46 / 5:51 vs. 5:15 / 5:10 (this release),
- 4:46 / 5:51 vs. 5:15 / 5:10 (on Nightflight To Venus),
- 4:46 / 5:51 vs. 5:55 / 6:03 (on Nightflight To Venus),
- 5:15 / 5:10 vs. 4:46 / 5:51 (on Nightflight To Venus),
- 5:15 / 5:10 vs. 5:55 / 6:03 (on Nightflight To Venus).
