The label photos here do not show blue background as stated in the text. My copy has blue background but my runout markings match (more closely) this release https://discogs.descargarpelis.net/release/9768453-Parliament-Mothership-Connection (including stamped P in runout which is not indicated). Also the llinked release indicated Pitman pressing but does not show up when you sort for Pitman pressing in the filters. At any rate, both labels are substantially the same as far as text layout and fonts. If first press is identified by the blue background, then these two releases should be merged.
