I just bought a 2006 reissue of the said album, released by Revisited Records (a division of SPV GmbH) as SPV 304182 CD, and it contains a couple of things worth noting on the album page: http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=4690

The sides of the original album have been reversed so that the 20 minute title track opens the album, and the original first side comes after that in  correct running order. It also includes two bonus tracks:

6. TouchMaPhal (10:17)
7. I Want the Sun to Shine (10:32)

Yeah, I've got it too. The exact same edition.

Fixed. Added the track-list and release information. Thumbs Up

^ Indeed. I like TouchMaPhal especially.

Yes they are fine, but they are from a much later era of Düül II. From the 90s no?

I think so. 
These guys are discussing the same thing:

Can anyone explain this mystery? Personally, I resequenced the album to have the vinyl running order on my MP3 player.

I thought I had updated this one back when I was looking into ADII reissues...guess I never actually got around to it.  Ah well, it's done now, good stuff! Thumbs Up
