Up on Cripple Creek/ The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down

Originally released on Capitol 2635. Classic two-sided smash of essential Band tracks. From 50 years later, this looks like a greatest hits 45, but of course the B side didn't get much airplay at the time. The A side is a 3:10 edited version of the 4:29 LP cut. This is a beautiful copy of the Starline reissue on a black label with a rainbow band. The audio has a touch of underlying surface noise but grades Near Mint overall.
