Vertigo — 6360 080
The original 1972 German Vertigo swirl pressing is highly prized on SHF for its dynamic, natural analog sound and is considered the definitive vinyl.

I don't have reliable verified information about the specific production details of Gentle Giant's "Octopus" album that would meet the accuracy standards you've requested. While I know the album was released in 1972 and is part of their discography, I cannot confidently confirm specific details about the recording studio, engineers, producers, or technical choices without risking providing inaccurate information. To get an accurate summary with verified facts, I'd recommend checking the album's liner notes, band interviews, or established music history sources that document this recording.
