Notes

Recorded 02/03/1959 and 22/04/1959. 
6-eye labels.

The back cover lists "Flamenco Sketches" as the fourth track and "All Blues" as the last track, which is incorrect. However, the labels list the tracks in the correct order, which is reflected in the tracklist on this page.

This version can be differentiated from the other 1959 stereo pressings by the labels:
First, there is misprinted version (Miles Davis - Kind Of Blue) with an error in the track order on the side B label.
Second, there is another version (Miles Davis - Kind Of Blue) with "Kind Of Blue" printed on one line on the side B label.
Third, there is another version (Miles Davis - Kind Of Blue) with slightly different typesetting that is most distinguishable in the width of the characters that form the catalog number and "Stereo Fidelity" at the top of the labels.

There is also a repress (Miles Davis - Kind Of Blue) with labels that show "CBS" (CBS) in the upper center area, but are otherwise very similar to the Columbia '6-eye' labels on this version. 

A printer number "4" printed on the bottom right corner of the sleeve back (see images).
