Sleeve Notes
'Vol. 2' was added to the USA title, which features alternate tracks and a different album
cover to the Japanese version. The Japanese release has a view of Saturn and its rings on
the sleeve with what looks like another planet under construction in the background.
With both versions, the original pieces were truncated to fit on the LP.
