Notes

Labelversion with MPL logo, for version without MPL logo on labels see Wings (2) - Venus And Mars
Recorded at Sea Saint, New Orleans and Wally Heider L.A. (The Pit!)

Comes with a separate round sticker showing the red and yellow planets from the front cover and on the edge the text (all around the sticker): Wings. Venus and Mars are alright tonight.

A seconds sticker in rectangle and shows our galaxy, comparative sizes of sun and planets with the time it takes to make their circle around the sun and their size.

Also it comes with two large posters.

First shows the same text as the sticker and nine different black and white photos of an old shed, with and without band . However in every picture the colored planets come back.

A second poster shows the band in black and white with large black hats on during enthusiastically listening to (what appears to be) a sort of Dixieland band in navy suits.
