Comments and Reviews


record archivist 27th Nov 2020		First Pressing label added.



wax_museum 22nd Feb 2020		Blue labels replaced red ones cica 1972. Mono copies of this do exist in UK covers, but they are rare as unicorn poo. I’ve been chasing a mono for years without success.



Lee Wrecker 15th Apr 2018		This one was released on both red and blue Decca labels. The Decca unboxed red labels were in use in Australia until at least 1970 so they would be the original labels for this release. The octagonal cover which was phased out by 1970 in the UK must have lasted longer here in Australia. Maybe they printed too many?
