Unsure what the Russian on the front cover is saying, and so, due to the current situation, apologies if anyone finds it offensive.
No bias either way intended here, just recording a part of musical history;)

And indeed, Discogs has the UK/Europe release on Decca.

Comment by PhilMH:

Sheepdip1234 is right; at that time, classical releases on London were reserved for the Americas and Far East, where MCA Records had the rights to the Decca name; adverts for London in the US Schwann catalogue in the 1980s highlighted the fact that the records were made in the Netherlands. Releases for UK, Europe and the rest of the world were on Decca, and most likely one pressing from the Netherlands would have been used for all those territories, Decca's UK factory at New Malden having closed shortly after the PolyGram takeover.

Comment by Gill Sans SUBS:

It doesn't look like a UK London label, and it was pressed in Holland; either Netherlands or German I should think, but if we want to hedge our bets it could go under "European".

Country should be USA or Canada as the UK issue would be on Decca I suspect.
