Notes
Almost identical to Mike Oldfield - Tubular Bells, the 2nd press of UK release with color labels. The only differences are the title "Tubular Bells" appearing in double quotes on both labels, and slightly different matrix (B6 instead of B7). The text on the backside of the sleeve differs from this similare release: Tubular Bells.
