Notes
This is likely a slightly later release of the first pressing with a correction to the labels (the manufacturing text has significantly more distance from the track listings compared to the first pressing). Labels both feature the word STEREO on both sides and have references to the Publishers Essex and Rondor.
It uses stampers prepared from RCA US Indianapolis plant lacquers (2S & 6S), as indicated by the crossed "I" in the runout groove and is copied from original US artwork.
Front is laminated. No inner sleeve was issued.
Album production at Trident Studios, London.
To Be Played At Maximum Volume.
A Gem Production.

Manufactured by RCA Limited, Sydney, Australia. Made from Master Recordings of RCA Records.

I recently picked up this Australian pressing of Ziggy and I am very happy. I also have a recent remastered vinyl (Parlophone) and while there may be a subtle increase in clarity, the old aussie pressing has charm and sounds less clinical and drums more natural if that makes sense. I prefer this pressing, even though the remaster is also very good. Not sure if it's even worth hunting down a UK pressing after hearing this to be honest.
