The original pressing of the LP was available with green, red and black frames. The characters in the background are different on each of these versions. The black frame version is considered the rarest of them whereas the red frame version has the same characters that appear on the cover of the CD version. The single vinyl repress from the early 2000s was only released with the green frame.
