    I have to agree about all the original clear vinyl editions being very noisy...and I have a few. So a long time ago I went searching for this original black vinyl version just to have a better sounding pressing. I purchased one only to find out it is on a dark red vinyl! It has the silver Polydor labels but the vinyl is a dark red. Something like those early Beatles Japanese vinyl releases. Does anyone know anything about this? It doesn't look like it was bootlegged (pirated). Would be great if anyone had any input.

      If anyone has a spare cover for this, I'd be happy to purchase it.

        Even though the original clear vinyl issue with x-ray sleeve is a work of conceptual genius (looking quite unlike any other record ever made, especially at the time, 1972) I actually prefer this black vinyl version as it seems to play much better and much quieter.
        The clear vinyl pressings I have are noisier, especially during the quiet ages.
        Simply put - one of the greatest albums ever made and, imo, Faust's best (closely followed by 'Tapes').
