Comment by Madame Streggae:

It did indeed - bought mine Xmas `71 (record token money) and the poster went straight up on my bedroom door. I'd became unenamoured with Marc and co. probably a year or so later and it was gifted to a cousin, although not with poster I'm sure. I presume the high value is for the copy with poster.

Comment by Rexpertr:

Date 1972 here is definitely wrong:

This LP was released in 1973 as the pic was taken at concert in Hamburg “Messe Halle 7“ on 17.02.1073.

Comment by Lee Wrecker:

M.Antony, you asked "was this the first ever official release of "Midsummer Night's Scene?" To my knowledge and recollection I believe the answer is yes. The liner notes here say that Marc left John's Children because he had "intense dissatisfaction" with the mix of the track. Whether that had anything to do with its withdrawal I don't know. What I do know though is that the inclusion of this track on this album made this compilation sort after worldwide.
It was put together by Australian rock historian Glenn A. Baker who made some excellent compilations for the major labels and on his own Raven label (1979). He specialized in including super rare tracks like "Midsummer Night's Scene" or re-releasing long out of print sort after albums.
