IN EARLY 1969 COLUMBIA DECIDED TO CHANGE THEIR LABEL DESIGN AND DROPPED THE 'BLUE/BLACK' COLUMBIA LABELS THEY HAD USED THROUGHOUT THE 1960s.  THIS CHANGE HAPPENED IN MARCH 1969 - AND CHANGED THE LABELS TO 'SILVER/BLACK' LABELS, BUT CRUCIALLY THEY LEFT THE 'SOLD IN THE UK' LABEL TEXT AT THE BOTTOM OF EACH LABEL!!!!  AND YET, ONLY 2 MONTHS LATER IN MAY 1969 EMI (WHO OWNED COLUMBIA) DECIDED TO REMOVE THE 'SOLD IN THE UK' LABEL TEXT FROM ALL OF THEIR RECORD LABELS FOREVER (INCLUDING PARLOPHONE, COLUMBIA, HMV, ETC), WHICH THEY HAD ALSO USED THROUGHOUT THE 1960s!!!!  AND THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT MAKES THIS LP SO INCREDIBLY RARE!!!!  BECAUSE, THIS ULTRA RARE 'RAREST EVER' MONO PRESSING WAS ONLY EVER PRESSED WITH THESE 'RAREST EVER' SILVER/BLACK 'SOLD IN THE UK' LABELS FOR 2 MONTHS ONLY (IN EARLY 1969) WHEN SALES OF THIS LP WERE EXTREMELY LOW INDEED - AND AS A RESULT, ONLY A FEW HUNDRED COPIES WERE EVER MADE!!!!  THE 'EARLIER' BLUE/BLACK COLUMBIA LABEL VERSIONS OF THIS LP TURN UP REGULARLY (ALMOST EVERY WEEK!) - AS THEY WERE MADE CONTINUOUSLY FOR 5 WHOLE YEARS!!!!  AND THE LATER 'SILVER/BLACK' LABELS (WITHOUT 'SOLD IN THE UK' TEXT!) - ARE ALSO VERY COMMON, AS THEY WERE MADE FOR 2 OR 3 WHOLE YEARS AFTER THIS ALSO!!!!  BUT THIS ULTRA RARE 'SOLD IN THE UK' MONO PRESSING FROM EARLY 1969 -  IS UNDOUBTEDLY THE RAREST PRESSING OF THIS LP EVER MADE, WAS ONLY EVER MADE FOR 2 MONTHS ONLY (IN EARLY 1969), AND ONLY A FEW HUNDRED COPIES WERE EVER PRESSED!!!!  SO THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DOUBT AT ALL - THAT THIS IS THE RAREST & MOST SOUGHT AFTER PRESSING OF THIS LP EVER MADE!!!!
