Thanks Snow Dog! ClemofNazareth already made the first corrections, removing the "recorded in 1980". We wrote PMs already.
Actually, I would not trust wiki that much (in another thread I explained why).
I am not sure, if it is also of interest to note on this PA site that it was recorded in 1978. But, of course, they could not officially release it. Plastic People were a "forbidden" band. They could release it in the West in 1980. In Czechoslovakia their tapes were distributed in secret. I know it from own research (I am studying czech language and literature, and I am focussing on Prague Spring and Charter 77).

I got my info elsewhere and have made changes to the discog. If you find any new info let me know here.

Is the cover right? It shows a different title that according to wiki was released in 1978

I'm sure it is wrong cover, this one shouldn't be with Agon Orchestra. Will research further.

Where does it say this?

On my copy (released 1998) it says in the booklet that there were two previous releases, one in 1980 and one in 1992. All three releases, however, are based on the same mastertape that was recorded in the summer house of Vaclav Havel in Hrádeček, in May 1978.
