Hey i need some help just bought the above named record at ebay. The label ist in rainbow color striped. is this the original or the recent repress. Seller told me for sure original Roots archives shows a white label with Water lilly written on it.
So everyone how is sure what the original label is please let me now
Thanks

You'll see when you receive it. The reissue has a rather cheap reproduction of the cover art. Especially noticeable on the back.

I've got the reissue and it has the label going in rainbow colours but with different typography and no black circle around the information. If you've got the label beneath I'd guess you have the original;
[cover=7136,1626]

Looking at the auction at eBay have I would guess that it is the original pressing (or at least a very very early press).

Great album none the less.

Rainbow is repress. The cover is obviously photocopies as well.

thanks for the help. After all i think my rainbow colored label with the black circle iss a late 80s repress
Whatever i got to listen to the record

Also got the repress, and cant even read the stuff written on the back. Hate that.
But then again it´s the music that counts, and this one counts for sure...
