Into the Purple Valley (Reissue, original Gatefold, GEMA/BIEM imprint, LC only below)

There are several german reissues of this album existing.

To differ them, you have to compare 3 different sections:

1. The back cover upper right imprint:
This one has only REP 44 142 and below (MS 2052), like at the original version.
Later versions have price codes and finally the barcode.

2. On the label, the upper right:
Right of the :r label Imprint, some show the LC Number.
This one don't have a LC Number imprinted here.

3. On the label in the middle below:
This one has K 44142 underneath (MS 2052-A or MS 2052-B) and also directly underneath LC 0322.
Some versions have no licence here at all. Others have a space above the LC line.

There are also more obvious changes at the Label:
Some have only the tracks Imprinted.
This one has also the Publisher credits imprinted.

Because of the Matrix / Runout imprints, this could be maximum the third reissue pressed of R/S Alsdorf. Record Service Alsdorf started pressing vinyl in 1976. 1987 it was renamed to TELDEC. wea Musik GmbH started in 1977 and was renamed on Dec 20th,1985. So the reissue must be released between the Years 1977 and 1985.
