Just like the [PSE96-073] release, the Dolby intro is actually placed after the credits (Side 3, Chapter 37 - 54:30).

Both this release and the later [PSE96-073] exhibit signs of laser rot. I purchased both sets on ebay factory sealed recently and both had the problem. This is one of the very few Pioneer manufactured releases I have ever had that had laser rot. It's my guess that there was some sort of unknown defect on the line during manufacturing, I never have their lasers rot from the cheap adhesive problem.
