Notes
The first commercial available release of this LP, which was originally released privately on Music Factory in a limited edition of 500 copies.
Some copies have the sticker on sleeve: "Electric Rock - Idee 2000"
Note: This release has LIBERTY / UA GMBH, MÜNCHEN on label rims unlike later pressings which have UNITED ARTISTS RECORDS GMBH MÜNCHEN
The labels have writing credits on the right side to the titles unlike the otherwise identical version Monster Movie which have them underneath.
According that label design/layout which is also present on later pressings, the labels with credits to the right are the earlier ones.
Recorded Live at Burg (cover says Schloss) Nörvenich July 25th 1969
A Prom Inner Space Production
The first pressing was made from the same plates as the Music Factory pressing, so has those matrix numbers alongside the Liberty matrices.

My copy is identical to these 1969 issues in most regards, but has the same label as the pressing listed here as a 1973 reissue (the 'United Artists' rim text, song credits on second line). It has the first UA matrices (SRS 001 A 83 342-A), the original Carl v. d. Linnepe-printed sleeve, and a similarly placed 'Electric Rock' sticker which is white/rectangular instead of purple/oval. So, it's an early pressing from the first UA plates, with an original sleeve but a presumed later label.
This seems like a 1969 copy to me. Perhaps it's transitional, somewhere between the '69 originals and the '73 repress? But to complicate matters, I have seen copies for sale with the (presumed) very first all-on-one-line labels and the same white sticker as mine.
All of which is to say that I'm not convinced the label layout and rim text are a reliable indicator of pressing date.
