Special thanks to: Scott Luther and Fred Hull c/o Compal Copmuters
Fabulous vintage electric guitars courtesy of Richard, Steven and Lawrence Friedman.
Photographed for Magnum.

Printed inner sleeve, cardboard quality.

Title track since co-credited to Keith Jarrett due to similarity to "Long As You Know You're Living Yours".

Stamped: ‘MASTERDISK’ & ‘EDP’, the latter is circled.
All the rest is etched, the final characters & digits extremely faintly.

    Yes, yes, yes..... found a NM copy today on a vinyl fair. It ticks all the boxes as mentioned in other reviews, punchy, detailed, dynamic and lovely soundstage. This version is exactly the same as the 1st US press. So get it, you will not regret it.

      This thing is a killer, this is really a dynamite of a record, the whole thing sounds really beautiful. I have no words to describe it, just get one somehow and you will not be disappointed.

        Fantastic sound. Soundstage is incredible on this pressing. Bob Ludwig works his magic again.

          This one lives up to its reputation: the sound is expansive and true to the sonic masterpiece that is Gaucho. If you want to get an original American pressing of this album without having to order one from the US, this is a great get.
