Description

Auto-coupled double album, UK 1st press with corrected blue cyan text. Cover is fully laminated inside and out.

Gatefold cover (Good - these issues instantly began delaminating when opened & poor fit of laminate). Cover opens to view inner spread (glued to outer cover's inside tabs as separate element). Gloss laminate exposing matt areas on all four edges. (Effectively, the sleeve is a flattened 2-piece cardboard tube).

Hendrix portrait on right-hand side (Back cover behind it).
Large sepia images of Redding & Mitchell on left (Front cover behind it), with blue tracks/credit text below them. "Track Record" logo center, E.J.Day print data to left. Erratic use of upper & lower-case in titles.

Discs in poly-lined white paper punch-hole sleeves. "Patent no 800513 & 973939" "Made in England 108 & 98"
