Recorded At Lansdowne Studios Recorded At Trident Studios Lacquer Cut At Decca Studios Pressed By Decca Record Co. Ltd., Pressing Plant, UK. This is the very first and only pressing including the Track 'Movement 3' on the record. To distinguish it from later pressings it must show all these characteristics:
- Tracklist on Cover includes 'Movement 3' - Tracklist on B-Side Label includes 'Movement 3' - B-Side Matrix Number ends with -1W - Duration of Side-B is ~23:50 (manually timed. later pressings ~20:34) - B-Side runout groove is 20mm wide (distance from recorded groove to Label) - B-Side plays 'Movement 3' between 'Blane' and 'Movement 4'
This pressing was immediately withdrawn due to copyright difficulties and reissued without 'Movement 3' shortly after.
UNLIKE subsequent issues on the cover backside the last paragraph of the liner notes reads for 'Movement 3': 'Movement 3 is taken from the Danse des Adolescents from Stravinsky's Rite of Spring. The repeated chord effect is used on stage, continuing for several minutes, but this would obviously not have worked on record.'
Tracks A1, A3 to B1e recorded at Landsdowne Studios. Track A2 recorded at Trident Studios.
