I either have this or had it, as a non gatefold ? The sleeve was textured as well?

Comment by Gian_paolo:

This one looks like the original UK gatefold

Comment by PhilMH SUBS:

P.S. the Australian and US (United Artists) editions linked below also have the colour gatefold.

Comment by PhilMH SUBS:

See Discogs for the original 1970 gatefold edition with a colour photo of the band; this sleeve showing Manufactured & Distributed by EMI Records Limited on the back would be from 1973 or so.

Comment by ppint. ●:

the additional cat# letter prepended to the original trailing "T" appears to've been born from a misreading of the cat# on the original lp's b-side, where there is no space set between the cat#, "ILPS 9081T", and the b-side indicator, "B".

yr hmbl srppnt. s'spects it'll never surface whether the misreading occurred in island's offices, or was by the person setting up the type for the new-style labels, nor whether it was considered, even briefly, by whomsoever was responsible that there was clearly a different cat# for the a-side, ILPS 9081TA:
which might so easily've given us ILPS 9081 TA A paired with ILPS 9081 TB B. . .

Comment by PhilMH SUBS:

The primary catalogue number for this Island label edition should be SIL-933909; SFL-933909 was the number for the previous Festival label edition. I wonder if the images here are a mismatch of cover and record?

Did this have a gatefold sleeve? Dick Polak is credited with photography, but there are no photos shown here.
