Notes:

US 1st pressing (with the 1841 Broadway address on the labels), featuring Robert Ludwig's "hot" mastering on both sides. These were withdrawn early because the high bass levels caused low-grade cartridges to mistrack, leading people to return the album on the belief that it was defective. Another engineer was then hired to recut a much less "hot" version of the album, and that is the far more common version. On some copies the Sterling Sound credit, "SS", appears in both runouts following Ludwig's "RL", and on others the "SS" appears only in the Side Two runout. The "RL" will still appear in both runouts. Comes in a gatefold sleeve. This sub should only be used for copies with "RL" in both runouts. Later transitional pressings which featuring "RL" on only one side and another engineer's work on the other should receive their own subs. "PR" in label matrix denotes a [l130920 pressing. "LW" in runouts indicates [l438055 metal parts. "AT" in runouts indicates [l264584 mastering "W" in runouts indicates that blank lacquers came from the company Audiodisc.
