Additional Information

Comments First pressing of this album which contains lots of different versions, only available on this pressing.The biggest difference is the main title track 'Nightflight To Venus' which is more than 7 minutes!'Rasputin' has a unique instrumental part within the last verse.This first pressing is easy to distinguish from the other pressings.On side A, only 4 tracks are visually recognizable."Nightflight To Venus" & "Rasputin" are not visually separated.Also a different mix for "He Was A Steppenwolf" & a slightly different version of "Voodoonight".The timings given in tracklist are the actual timings. As on lots of Boney M. release this album also came with wrong timings printed on the cover or label.Timings printed on label and cover:A1: 5:15A2: 5:10A3: 3:45A4: 6:13A5: 3:26B1: 5:00B2: 4:20B3: 4:00B4: 5:12B5: 4:05There are 4 pressings of this LP:The most significant difference is the length of 'Nightflight To Venus'.On the very first pressing it was 7:11 min.The second pressing was [url=http://www.discogs.com/release/1149465]5:55 min.[/url], the third [url=https://www.discogs.com/release/471954]4:58 min.[/url] & the final and most common [url=http://www.discogs.com/Boney-M-Nightflight-To-Venus/release/52669]4:46 min.[/url]Many thanks to The Rhythm Machine.And especially to R.
