From the liner notes:
The vinyl version was shortened of seven minutes for technical purpose inherent in vinyl industry to be as close possible as the original soundtrack in terms of frequencies and dynamic. The 53 minutes of the integral version of ≪Kshatrya≫ is available on CD.
The printed durations for track 4 (5'32), track 5 (8'17), track 7 (10'55) and track 8 (6'20) do not match the durations as they actually run.
Issued in standard jewel case with clear disc tray. Includes 16-page booklet with notes in French and English.
