Technical Note: This record is in stereo. It can also be played with equal fidelity on monaural record players. There is a different equalization pattern on each channel (channel A and channel B) so that by putting the selector switch to channel A the sound is different from that of the channel B mode. It is therefore possible with stereo to get four different permutations of Sound (A; B; A & B; A + B). This offers the listener a far wider choice of what the music will sound like.

According to runout etchings, sides A & B were newly mastered in 1-85 while sides C & D used the same stamper as previous versions
