FAQ

Is this the original pressing?
No. The original was released on RCA Victor in 1966. This copy is the 1976 Pickwick reissue with nine instead of twelve tracks.

What does Media NM- / Cover VG+ mean?
Record: NM- (Near Mint minus) means close to new with at most minimal signs of use. Sleeve: VG+ (Very Good Plus) means light signs of use that barely affect playback or the overall impression. All grades are explained on our Vinyl Grading page.
