Yes, and at that time, Columbia in Don Mills was doing contract pressings for Atlantic, Atco and related labels. So the mixup occurred in the packaging department. I was working at Sam The Record Man's main store on Yonge Street in Toronto (the largest record store in Canada) then. After opening my album to find the wrong record, we took all the most recent copies out of the bins upstairs and waited for replacements with the right record.

Having worked in a print shop for 13 years, unless the plants just didn't care, I can't see how these were able to get out of house! Any time we found a screw-up, we had to stop everything, go through everything that could've possibly been assembled wrong, take it apart and do it the right way! Even if it took a few hours.
