VINYL STRONG VISUAL VG w LOTS OF WISPY HAIRLINE TURNTABLE WEAR THAT, FOR THE MOST PART, DOES NOT AFFECT PLAY. With that said, there's a wee bit of crackle between songs and the start of each side. No worries, the all important SIDE 1 plays through clean once it gets rolling. Side 2 has a wee bit more crackle at times but, again, plays through without any repetitious skipping etc. IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR PERFECTION, move on. But if you don't mind a slightly LIVED IN ORIGINAL for the MAN-CAVE, this one's for you. BTW the FRONT COVER, SEAMS, and SPINE are GORGEOUS. Great if you need a cover upgrade.


Matrices identify this as a 1967 pressing which was pressed at Atlantic Studios using Longwear Plating metalwork and a Scully Lathe.In other words, SOUNDS F'N GREAT !!!!

There are subtle differences compared to the 1968 stereo pressing, which was pressed at Columbia’s plants, including label texture, label font, matrix numbers and vinyl thickness. The original Atlantic pressings have thicker vinyl, slightly lighter yellow labels with slightly different font and crude hand-etched matrices.

The Columbia pressings, which were issued during a brief transition in 1968 between Stax’s termination of Atlantic’s distribution and being acquired by Gulf + Western, have thinner vinyl with machine-stamped matrices,THIS ONE !!!
