This is an American pressing on Music Guild Records, a division of Westminster Recordings, a subsidiary of ABC Records, Inc.
Also released in Mono as MG-142
This issue is likely to have been released be soon after the 1965 French release because a mono release was issued, and because the English title matches the early French releases. Later reissues include "de la Présence Divine" in the title.
THIS release is the only one to identify Claude Rie as the Mastering engineer. The source of that attribution should be identified before assuming the Erato release was also mastered by him.
Some later releases were remastered, no longer citing Daniel Madelaine or Claude Rie:
ABC Westminster Gold – WGS-8276 (1974)
Olivier Messiaen - Petites Liturgies / De La Présence Divine
