 THIS IS THE EXTREMELY RARE 1ST EVER PRESSING OF THIS LP!  THIS LP PLAYS THE  RARE 2:52 VERSION OF 'TELL ME'!  THIS WAS VERY QUICKLY CHANGED TO THE STANDARD 4:06 PRESSING OF 'TELL ME' ON ALL LATER PRESSINGS AND ONLY A HANDFUL OF THESE LP'S LEAKED OUT WITH THE 2:52 VERSION!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY HARD TO FIND AS A 1ST PRESSING!  IT IS ALSO IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT ON THIS 1ST PRESSING - THE 2:52 VERSION OF 'TELL ME' IS NOT ONLY SHORTER THAN THE STANDARD LATER '4.06' VERSION - BUT A TOTALLY DIFFERENT RECORDING!  IT SOUNDS TOTALLY DIFFERENT AND IS SUPERB!
