Mirosoft word will translate it.
Been selling them on ebay since around 2006 I am led to believe.

LOL when I finally discovered it.
Sleeve is so new - inner so new - label looks fake when you realise.

Yes EMI Australia did release an official pink SQ copy in 2007 (discogs web site) the first one was 1980.

Some will laugh with me, some will say - ya shud hv bought local see what ya gts when ya buys from overseas - no guarantee.
The seller accepts returns.
But I shall keep it to show my folly :D.

Pox I have a genuine 1975 second release Australian SQ version in mint condition and the standard miss pressed first edition from NZ where the 1st side was pressed in quad.

Thank fully I didn't pay what there going for now.
Not going in to the packaging either or the 5 week wait for something sent from Wales via Royal Mail. The first one got lost and they replaced it.

Hehehehehehe.

Be warned people - there are fakes out there.
