Companies, etc.

  • Pressed By – Decca Records Pressing Plant, Gloversville

Notes

On labels THERE IS NOT the text "A Division of MCA" printed below the rainbow strip, and matrix/runout is the same as the US PROMO The Who - Sings my Generation

For the above reasons this is a true example of first US pressing with the standard US Decca label.

Mono (and stereo) copies with "A Division of MCA" printed below the rainbow strip were pressed later (1967-68).

Pressings from Decca Gloversville plant can be identified by a ? (typically LPs) at the end of the B side label matrix and a stick "1" stamped/etched into the runout.

Original green Decca "arrow" inner sleeves.
