      The regular French issue has slurred speaking 'If I can just ..' (sounds like Gil pretending to be drunk) then laughter before 'Uno, dos..' Is that what is meant by 'spoken intro' in above description? Or does this demo have something different?

        Release date is wrong...it didnt come out in 1974..,it is a custom legal repress done in 1978. I know the person who did it.

          The Strata-East and Arista pressings should be under separate listings as they are different versions. Arista is live Strata-East is studio recording, misleading to list under the same master title.

            Don't recall this being officially released in the USA in 1974?
            The LP track then the French Single were played in 74/75.
            However it was bootlegged in the mid-seventies (based on the official French release).
