| Original LP | ||
| The original version came in black
vinyl with blank labels. The matrix number on the vinyl had
hyphens in it. The sleeve was non-glossy and the front cover had a black stripe along the bottom. Back cover had a maximum price notice and a dedication to someone called Ertl. |
 |
 |
| Note: Some copies of the original pressing were released in the second cover (the one used for the "first set of re-issues" listing below which doesn't have the max price and Ertl comment). | ||
| Variation: We have discovered a clear vinyl version which is the same as the first issue in every respect apart from the vinyl colour and the sleeve. It has hyphens in the matrix number and Shadowplay as the last track on side 2 so it is presumably pressed from the same plates.. However, the sleeve is different - it is in the second cover (the one used for the "first set of re-issues" listing below which doesn't have the max price and Ertl comment). The labels are plain white. We believe this version came out in the early 1980s. | ||

* This CD has been re-issued - some covers have bigger pictures and writing (like when you xerox something the copy is a bit bigger), the images inside the insert are a mirror image, the last E in "Gruftgesaenge" is partly cut off on the back cover, and the insert is on thinner paper.
