Notes:

℗ 1973 The Gramophone Company Limited 

This is a version of the 4th UK issue. 
- Labels have a non-solid blue triangle with EMI logo to the left and Harvest to the right.
- Issued in a gatefold sleeve with two A2-sized posters and two stickers.
- The cat# 1E 064 o 05249 appears very small on the back cover.
- The logos and text at the inner spread, bottom left have a blue colour. 
- Runout matrix has no 'HTM'. This version is between 1974 and prior to 1977. A-5/B-5, A-4/B3 or A-6/B-3 releases were not mastered by Harry Moss.
- Similar to "[r7857139" but has "Pink Floyd Music Publ." instead of "World Copyrights Ltd." towards the bottom of the label.

Note: This release has "Pink Floyd Music Publ." on the middle of the labels (below the track list) which is different than other 4th issue releases which have "World Copyrights Ltd." in the same space.   "World Copyrights Ltd." was used on earlier releases as well.
"Pink Floyd Music Publ." is similar to 5th release and beyond, but the stamper number for this version correspond to 4th issue (A-5/B5, A-4/B-3, A-6/B-3, etc.)

Recorded at Abbey Road Studios, London between June 1972 and January 1973.
