G (Good) – Heavily played, noise likely; cover with visible damage.
Generic – Original cover missing, record comes in a generic sleeve.
Comments:
Sleeve has the original feather and piece of paper glued to it. Sleeve intact and more like VG+ there are some light stains and damage probably made by the artist himself!
Some albums were released in multiple versions (pressings). There is the first pressing, which can be very valuable to collectors. When that stock runs out, a new pressing is made, called a repress or re-issue. These are often slightly different, such as a different sleeve or heavier vinyl.
Sometimes older albums are remastered, improving the sound quality. A new pressing is made for this as well. Differences in artwork or small production errors can also make a specific version more attractive.
What makes the difference in price?
For records that are not new, the market value is determined by scarcity and the condition of both the record and the sleeve. Pricing is based on supply and demand, and whether a version is limited or numbered.
Which variant should I choose?
If it’s mainly about the music, a repress is a good choice. An original or numbered edition has a different kind of appeal.
Including tax.

General notes about this release (please note: our version may differ a little. see the comments above):
Recorded at Bennink's stable near his home at the Mijndensedijk in Loenen aan de Vecht, 1971-1972. Originally released in 1974. Re-issued in1978.
Mentioned in Erik van den Berg - De Wereld als Trommel, p. 154 (biography about Bennink).
Bennink confirmed this during a radio interview in April 2008: He used his UHER equipment for this, so indeed he did all the recording himself.
Bennink received the tape with the recording of the Brazilian jungle from Dutch composer Peter Schat. The tape was also used for the Opera "Reconstructie" (Reconstruction, in which Peter Schat was one of the co-composers) (source: "De Wereld als Trommel" (p. 135).
1974 release copies have little objects (feathers, Dutch flags, paper with pencil marks etc.) glued to the front by Bennink and are signed by Bennink on the back - dated '74. Re-issue signed on back with 1978.
