Description:
A definitive 1972 UK first pressing, distinguished as a desirable audiophile "Porky Prime Cut" as evidenced by George Peckham’s "Pe" signature etched in the runout. This version is highly regarded for its superior dynamic range and "hot" lacquer cut compared to standard transfers. The record features the authentic tan/beige United Artists labels with the corrected "Sweet Mountain" spacing, identifying it as a second-state label within the initial 1972 production run. It is housed in its original white textured linen-style sleeve, which correctly lists Brian Wilson as Executive Producer and Stephen Desper as Engineer. Complete with the period-correct "Patent No. 1,125,555" poly-lined inner sleeve, this copy remains a significant collector's item for Brian Wilson enthusiasts, providing the most punchy and detailed audio profile available for this title.
