wax_museum 6th Dec 2018		Not that I know of. It was short lived maybe only 1971. I have a few others too



Lee Wrecker 5th Dec 2018		Thanks very much wax_museum!! PhilMH and I were just mentioning that we'd both never seen the blue Elektra label (1971) in real life. Then there you are one appears on the site. I don't believe this design was ever used anywhere else but Australia. Is that correct?



wax_museum 5th Dec 2018		1971 - blue label 1972-73 marble no WEA credit 1973-84 marble with WEA credit Something like that



wax_museum 5th Dec 2018		Here's the original label in all its glory



Jasper 6th Nov 2018		Sure Lee go ahead.



Lee Wrecker 6th Nov 2018		Jasper, I think your labels here pre-date mine. My copy would have been bought after 1980 or around then. Should I ask to shuffle your labels up as they are definitely from an earlier copy. (Correction sent Jasper)



Jasper 9th Jan 2016		Uploaded images of my copy purchased 28th May1975 from Australian Record Club. No WEA credit - produced by Paul A. Rothchild under album title and font is more bold.



Lee Wrecker 9th Jan 2016		I would have bought the pressing in the pics around or between 79-81 from memory. I assume the pressing is from around that time too the feel of the vinyl tells me this. But as the same cat was used for many years and many pressings we can just add label variations here. I for one would like to see an original pressing of this one.



PhilMH 9th Jan 2016		Yep, Astor lost the Elektra license at the end of 1970, I believe. Refining my previous comment a little, this album under this catalogue number entered the Australian album chart in the week of 10 May 1971, so release year for this number should be 1971. I'm not sure of the chronology, but the company that would become WEA Records Pty. Ltd in 1973 was originally set up as Warner Bros. Records Pty. Ltd in 1970, and sometime later became Kinney Records (or Kinney Music?) Pty. Ltd., both of those pressed and distributed by Australian Record Company Limited (CBS). ARC/CBS would continue to press WEA's records even after they set up their own distribution. The 6-digit MX matrix numbers on the labels indicate ARC/CBS pressings (not to be confused with Festival's matrix numbers, which also started with MX, but at this time were only 5 digits).



wax_museum 9th Jan 2016		My copy is on plain blue (no WEA credit). Should date here be 1973? The original more likely issued 1971 as the US released this Nov 1970. I've never seen a Gold label of this record, has anyone else? Gold Astor labels ceased early in 1971 I believe.



PhilMH 4th Jan 2014		Again, WEA company credit on labels indicates 1973 or later pressing.
