Album Info

Release Date: 1968

Label: Blue Note

Gatefold sleeve.

Blue/white Blue Note labels with rim text "BLUE NOTE RECORDS • A DIVISION OF LIBERTY RECORDS, INC." it is also a label variation: the writers credits per track are printed right next to them and not right under the track titles. Also, the fonts used for the cat.nrs., main artist name and album title differ from this version, it's immediately clear when checked with an A/B comparison [see and compare images].

Printed inside gatefold: "tracks A1 and A2 are electronically rechanneled" - this was done to create fake stereo, which can be heard with headphones.
