Notes Gatefold cover.
There is a bit of discrepancy on the release date, some sources say this may have been released in 1967.
BB - Aug. 10, 1968 (advert)

Cash Box September 14, 1968 BEATLEJOHN 23rd May 2018 Added cover images and label (I assume Terre Haute? "T" in wax..not as deep pressing ring as 699277/8)...also had a Barbra Streisand inner sleeve...I guess this may have come with original pressings of the "Central park" and "What About Today" Lps....I'm certain it didn't come with the first "Greatest Hits" Lp....John Break-In Master 6th Mar 2018 According to IMDb.com, it's 1968, but, a ways down the page it mentions it came out in 1975! kimbelina 19th Jan 2016 I have 'this' record (seems to be the same version although photos don't all match, so not sure)... the date on my record is 1968. BEATLEJOHN 24th Mar 2015 My Mistake...John PhilMH 22nd Mar 2015 Sorry, typos on my part, film release and album chart debut were in September 1968, not November - Joel Whitburn's TOP POP ALBUMS book has "9/28/68" as the chart debut date. LouisSidney 21st Mar 2015 Released in August, according to Steve Smolian's s'track guide. W.B.lbl ● 21st Mar 2015 From what I've seen, this LP was on Billboard's charts as early as late September. BEATLEJOHN 21st Mar 2015 Funny, It didn't chart until November 9th 1968 (where the 28th of November date came from, I don't know)...which means it was more than likely issued the last week of October...(and yes, It was previewed in Billboard on August 10th!)...John Trainman 21st Mar 2015 I suspected as much, that's why I stuck with 1968 date, but thought I should at least mention it because otherwise somebody would jump on it. PhilMH 21st Mar 2015 That's the dreaded Discogs for you, who have got the South African release of this as being 1967. However, the film's US release was 19th November 1968 according to IMDB, and the LP's BILLBOARD chart debut was the week of 28th November, so it is highly unlikely that it would have been released in RSA almost a year earlier. W.B.lbl ● 20th Mar 2015 If the Billboard ad is of any indication, those "sources" must be smoking something.
