    I have three Wilfilm copies from my buddy in Nigeria, all with only two numbers on the back covers, but for the matrix numbers, one has F5S/F3S in the runouts, one with F1S/F<S and one with F1S/F3S. So like a lot of records out there in general, I'm not sure how cut and dry it is with the matrix numbers in determining original '78 copies vs. that '80 repress. Labels are pretty much identical too. Who knows? :)

      Does anyone else have a copy of this where the music is pitched higher than the digital versions heard on Luaka Bops releases?
