Annotation

*** MERGE WARNING ***
The cover art does not quite match that at the discogs link--different front image and slight variations in back panel, though cat# and barcode and most elements are identical
The discogs reissue (or whatever it is) does however have the money disclaimer on the back panel: "To obtain the highest possible quality, some tracks have been re-recorded by the original artist or one more [sic] members of the original group"
In other words (too late), merge nothing to an original recording.
