Note about this press
This pressing with a silver/black Parlophone label. The "All rights of the manufacturer" message around the edge of the label starts with "EMI Records Ltd." (which started in 1969 ) and the label has two EMI boxed logos, as opposed to one boxed logo on the 1969 version. The cover says 'Made and printed in Great Britain' (referring to the jacket); the labels say 'Made in France' (referring to the record).
M6 in the runouts indicate that it was pressed by Pathé Marconi, Chatou.
U.K. release when production was outsourced to France (Pathé Marconi EMI) while the British pressing plant was being renovated and / or because of the oil crisis.
THE RECORD
THE LABELS
ORIGINAL SILVER AND BLACK STEREO LABELS IN SUPERB CONDITION. THE BLACK BASE COLOUR AND SILVER LOGO'S ARE BOTH UNRUBBED . THE SILVER TEXT IS ALSO IN PERFECTLY LEGIBLE CONDITION, AND THE SPINDLE HOLE IS UNWORN. I CAN'T SEE ANY SPIDER LINES BY THE SPINDLE HOLE WHATSOEVER
