A LITTLE HISTORY ON THE LOUD CUT IF YOU DON'T ALREADY KNOW IT
PRIOR TO RELEASE WHILE THE ALBUMS WERE BEING PRESSED AT THE HAYES PRESSING PLANT EMI DECIDED THAT HARRY MOSS HAD CUT THE ALBUM TOO LOUD SO THEY CEASED PRODUCTION ,NEW LAQUERS WERE MADE AND EMI CONTINUED PRODUCTION ,HOWEVER THE EARLIER PRESSINGS ( THE LOUD CUT) WERE NOT SCRAPPED AND CONTINUED ON INTO RETAIL OUTLETS

EMITEX INNER IS IN EXCELLENT CLEAN CONDITION
