As for being electronically re-channelled.. it's not half as bad as some that I've heard from RCA Victor or Capitol. At least this LP isn't heavily laden with reverb.
As for what janiejjones was asking about re-issue.. It's my understanding that the A side was a collection of The Yardbirds singles, and the B side was lifted from the UK Columbia LP, Five Live Yardbirds.. something that wasn't released in the USA. At one time I had a Canadian copy of that on the Charly label.. and yes, it was a Canadian pressing, not from the UK.. the labels were different. Bought it at a record shop in Windsor, Ontario.
After doing a little research, I come to find that my orange label pressing is from 1973. I may be going out on a limb here, but I am going to make an educated guess that this was the last reissue of this LP before being deleted from the Epic LP catalogue. If anyone has evidence of this, one way or another, please comment.
I just picked up a reissue on the '70s orange label. Paid $30 for it.. jacket is a cut out. Label pics soon.. I promise! I once had a bootleg copy of the mono issue many years ago.
