    Such a murky mix/production detracts from the excellence of the music, IMHO.

      On my copy
      Side A i have, above the BPRS 4512 1E, LP crossed out with 2 X's does everyone's have this?
      Side B Matrix/Runout i have a faint etch A34 the 3 has an X through it...i assume to mean the 3 is crossed out

        Classic album. Prefer the cover of this one over the 'dress cover'. The asking price for that one is astronomical.

          Matrix/runout SIDE 1 (VARIANT, etched): AIAS(or maybe, A1AS)
          Matrix/runout SIDE 2 (VARIANT, etched): ASG (or maybe: A5G)

            Most issues of this one (did) have a sticker on the cover stating that the poster is included.
