1st Pressings have "Livin Lovin' Wreck" on label B2."Wreck" being later replaced with "Maid".
Inside cover B2 has already 'Maid' replacing 'Wreck' on label.
Note also the phrase on B2, "She's A Woman", later becomes "She's Just A Woman" on subsequent releases.
Further later pressings have A3 title changed as "Killing Floor" credited to "Burnett".

The early gatefold unlaminated cover is in light brown color. Later copies have dark brown color.
THIS SOUNDS GREAT THROUGH HEADPHONES WITH NO SKIPS OR JUMPS, JUST SOME LIGHT BACKGROUND CRACKLE IN THE QUIET PARTS DUE TO SOME LIGHT MARKS MAINLY ON SIDE 1.
