Notes

Capitol, Jacksonville pressing denoted by "0" stamp in runouts.

First run Jacksonville pressing, with track A2 incorrectly listed as "Hold On" on the back cover, side A label and booklet.
All Apple pressing labels of this have the incorrect title of "Hold On", and the wrong time for B3 "Six O'Clock", listed at 5:26 but plays at 4:05.

(Side note: The long version (5:26) of "Six O'Clock" was only issued on vinyl promotional copies before the album was re-mastered with the edited version, in very limited pressings. However, the long version IS on original cassette and 8-track pressings.)

Includes booklet with lyrics and Klaus Voormann illustrations.
