    This record is classic soul... With so many inexpensive copies you have to buy it.

      I propose that we delete the SP from the matrix information. I found the following information at:

      http://www.45-sleeves.com/

      1967 - 1968
      From January 1967, the Atlantic family of labels (all of them!) had their pressing plant codes added to the master numbers. Also, at the same time, the various pressing plants would have their labels printed up at different sources, and invariably the perimeter print would be different from one to the other. This lasted until the end of 1968 at which point the company established a set perimeter print standard and all plants fell in line - except one: LY.
      The pressing plants and their codes: AR: Allied Record Company; Los Angeles, California MO: Monarch Records; Los Angeles, California
      BW: Bestway Plastics; Mountainside, New Jersey PL: Plastic Products; Memphis, Tennessee
      CL- or no code: Columbia; Terre Haute, Indiana PR: Presswell Company; Ancora, New Jersey
      CT: Columbia; Bridgeport, Connecticut RI: PRC Recording Inddustry Prod.; Richmond Indiana
      LY: Shelly Products; Huntington Station, New York SP: Specialty Products; Olyphant: Pennsylvania
