Has distinction of being longest running single disc LPs ever issued (1 hour, 7 minutes and 34 seconds [Side B's total time is almost 35½ minutes ]).

However, because of its fragility and reduced dynamic range, following thing was printed on inner sleeve:
"Technical Note: Due to the amount of music on this disc (over one hour), two points must be emphasized. Firstly, if your needle is worn or damaged, it will ruin the disc immediately. Secondly, if the sound does seem not loud enough on your system, try re-recording the music onto tape. By the way, thanks for buying this album" Rating: 4.2
