BACK IN 1970 WHEN THIS LP WAS FIRST RELEASED - IT TURNED OUT TO BE ONE OF YES'S POOREST SELLING LPs EVER, AND AS A RESULT IT IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND INCREDIBLY HARD TO FIND TODAY!!!!

AS YOU CAN SEE ON THE BOTTOM OF EACH LABEL - THERE IS LISTED 'CAMPBELL CONNELLY' AND 'FELDMAN' ONLY!!!! WHEREAS ON ALL LATER COPIES OF ALL OF THEIR LPs (FROM 1971 ONWARDS!) 'YESSONGS' WAS ADDED TO THE CREDITS INSTEAD!!!! SO THEIR IS ABSOLUTELY NO DOUBT ALL - THAT THIS IS THE 'EARLIEST' & RAREST 1ST PRESSING EVER MADE, WITH COMPLETELY DIFFERENT LABEL CREDITS COMPARED TO ALL LATER PRESSINGS!!!!
