Annotation

This release ordered as new from Presto Music in 2026-06. Supplied product was CD-R in Jewel case with printed artwork. DiscID is identical to original pressed version https://musicbrainz.org/release/6862bf7a-4411-427f-9ec4-339e6c964b83 . Artwork printed on actual media is identical copy of original CD image including text "Made in USA" which I suspect may not be true.
