Description
VERTIGO VO1 847900VTY GENUINE FIRST PRESSING
Matrix No. s SideA : 886775 1Y*1 420 Side B: 886 775 2*Y*1 420
FIRST EVER RELEASE ON THE VERTIGO LABEL.
Recorded Spring/Summer 1969
Gatefold Sleeve includes 'A Philips Record Product' credit printed on the inside centre spread which, along with a similar inclusion on Side 2's label (see photos), indicates (to the best of my knowledge) that this LP is one of the original, earliest first pressings. Additionally, the B side has a larger swirl logo which was another feature of the earliest pressings.
The Side 2 track listings on the sleeve appear as:
Theme One - January's Search Theme Two - February's Valentyne Theme Three - The Grass is always greener.....
... whereas, on the record, these tracks are listed as: Part 1 - January's Search Part 2 - February's Valentyne Part 3 The Grass is Always Greener...
This is a really really nice copy of a classic collector's item.
