Edited one month agoI got a stunning NM/NM copy in my collection. I would sale for the right price. I also got 'More' from Saudi Arabia also NM/NM. Both look unplayed.

I believe my copy to be a Harvest Records 1st Issue. The runouts are: SHDW 1 A-1 AT 3, SHDW 1 B-2 OR 2, SHDW 2A-1 AH(?) 2, SHDW 2B-3 P 1. I have not been able to find these exact variant runouts but everything else checks out including: No EMI box to label. Label #2 Side 3 Artist 1 David Gilmour is incorrect, should be Richard Wright. Back Cover #3. Inner Sleeve #1. Grand Vizier London Controls are all spelt correctly. Source http://pinkfloydarchives.com/DUKLPPF.htm#Umma1

referencing Ummagumma (2×LP, Album, Reissue) STBB-388
why ruin a nice design by printing Special Buy! Contains Two Complete LP's on the front cover? -

Despite all four of the band giving only self-deprecating comments when forced to talk about their fourth studio album,it is a major achievement.
That said,the major accomplishment is the fortunately added live disc with recordings from the 1969 informal The man and the journey tour.They show the psychedelic Pink Floyd at the top of their game.Brilliant.
Since neither the studio nor the live album even remotely cater to audiophile standards,it's no use looking for a Holy Grail - there just isn't any.
This European pressing is as good as it gets in my humble opinion,dynamics and overall sonic performance are second to none. And it is definitely on par with the '83 Capitol US rainbow label reissue, in case you you've been wondering.
