    I used to own the 2008 reissue of this record.

    Safe to say, when I put on this, it sounded like I am hearing it for the first time. Extremely detailed, textured and dynamic. Separation is amazing which makes the electric piano sound very psychedelic.

    100/100.

      Have this pressing, bought Mint (was still sealed after 40 plus years). It plays great. Compared the MOFI with this 1977 pressing and the MOFI is a bit more lush but the 1977 pressing has more PRAT.

        Anyone aware of the year for this pressing, or its similar variants?
        I'm holding the following, which seems to almost fit:
        Side A: XSM150309-1AA o PXT 1
        Side B: o XSM150308-2B 1 T
