Description

Please read the following in detail.  I did a deep dive on AI (Gemini) and identified all the specifics that indicate that this LP was a very early pressing, either late 1974 or early 1975.
The runout in the dead wax is st-ss-753311-bbb.  The st denotes stereo format, the ss is Swan Song Records, 75 is the year, and the 3311 identifies the unique Atlantic master tape matrix number (this is on side 3).  The bbb is the specific lacquer cutting/plating iteration.
On the spine is SS-2-200 1198.  This is the catalogue number and Atlantic's suggested retail price of $11.98.  After 1975 the price shows $12.98.
The PR in the wax is for Presswell  in Ancora, NJ.  The AT is for Atlantic and the FT are the initials of Frank Tabino the master engineer.
At the bottom of the label are the words "dist. by Atlantic Recording Corp., 75 Rockefeller Plaza, N.Y., N.Y."  This is the number one indicator that it was pressed in late 1974 or early 1975.  On later pressings a "W" and "A Warner Communications Company" was added.
I don't attempt to grade my LPs.  Please look at the pictures of the cover, the inserts and the 4 LPs.  The LPs and the cardstocks show normal wear.  Please ask any questions prior to bidding.
I will include a printout of the information I got from Gemini.
Thank you and good luck.
