Found an interesting version of the 1st pressing. Textured FOC but the record is inserted on the front (left) of the gatefold. As in inserted right behind the front cover. I wonder if this is a misprint or a un-documented pressing. Anyone?

Fantastic album.. They played Kalvøya Festival when Frank Zappa visited Norway for the first time and Popol Vuh played there as well. Frank was so impressed with them that he offered them a recording contract.

Superb music in the vein of King Crimson times by times, especially the voice of the singer ing Greg Lake on track A2.
Got a new old stock vinyl copy from a friend who bought it in the seventies and trusted it was a new Popol Vuh (german krautrock band) record. I'm glad he kept it so much time without playing it ! Very well recorded and superb guitars solos.
Some tasteful jazz-rock elements too. Vibes : english prog in the vein of Crimson, Coloseum, ...
4,5/5 (not 5/5 because of A3 track, a bit too progish and light to me).
