Tracklisting & More Information

Pressing Information
The first cover was printed by Garrod and Lofthouse. The time in between the decision on how the cover should look and the actual manufacturing was probably very short. They had no time to wait for the Patent to be registered so had to put the 'Patent Pending' text next to the name. This can be found on both Mono & Stereo version, this was removed on later pressings.

The labels for the Stereo issue were on blue with silver print, with the unboxed Decca logo, the copyright box is on the left side, Tax Code J/T at the bottom, the publishers 'Mirage Music' is placed above the BIEM box on the left side with the side indication just left of the spindle hole. The catalogue number is in large size font and has a dot in-between the SKL and 4955 and has the matrix code printed upside down above the catalogue number, the record speed is not present.

The machine stamped matrix details are:-
Side 1 - XZAL-8476-3K
Side 2 - XZAL-8477-1K

The sleeve grades Excellent with just a little natural ageing in the laminate over time with no tears or writing. All text is clearly legible including along the spine, which shows just a little minor stressing to the paper at the bottom.
The first press vinyl is Excellent & shows minimal signs of play in its lifetime. A very nice collector's example.
