Notes
Original 1967 Stax stereo pressing made at Atlantic's pressing plants, as identified by the matrices. Matrices identify this as a 1967 pressing which was pressed at Atlantic Studios using Longwear Plating metalwork and a Scully Lathe.
There are subtle differences compared to the 1968 stereo pressing, which was pressed at Columbia's plants, including label texture, label font, matrix numbers and vinyl thickness. The original Atlantic pressings have thicker vinyl, slightly lighter yellow labels with slightly different font and crude hand-etched matrices. The Columbia pressings, which were issued during a brief transition in 1968 between Stax's termination of Atlantic's distribution and being acquired by Gulf + Western, have thinner vinyl with machine-stamped matrices.
