Comments and Reviews


PhilMH 16th Mar 2024		Discogs has a couple of Canadian copies with the 2-eye label, but no US ones, so there probably weren't any pressed.



W.B.lbl 16th Mar 2024		Did any copies of this get pressed with the 2-eye MONO label design? I know this was in the transitory period when, in June of 1970, Columbia first unveiled the red/orange "ring around" label (which I've gauged to be PMS 199 Red and PMS 137 Orange).



librsh 16th Mar 2024		Composers for Tracks D5-D7 are different than on the linked UK release.
