Notes

1976 repress based on the Casablanca labels featuring three camels, instead of the Bogart labels seen in 1975 and the full desert scene labels from 1977 onwards. Pressed by Keel Manufacturing Corporation, as noted by "KMC" in the runouts. Notable differences from other version include different positioning of the title in reference to the spindle hole (above instead of below) and different font used on the labels.
