A breathtaking FIRST photo here!
And, then, #1 once you go to the link.
Some of those showing there I've seen before, but not the #1.

Thanks, Jarkko.

Cover of German version is much more stunning than English version.

This is the back of the English edition - and front of the German?

Hi Jarkko,
the front and the back of the German and the English editions are absolutely identical:
the beautiful black and white photo on the front, the photo from the last concerts on the back.
On amazon.de they show it the other way round, but fortunately that´s wrong.
Greetings
