This is a copy of the first pressing with a solid green label and black print, with the label title in an "old english" typeface. The A side is ranked #175 in the Marsh 1001, and the B side is at #92. Note: This copy has significant ringwear on the labels, which grade VG. The vinyl looks slightly worse, as it's quite scuffed up looking. Fortunately, the audio is much better than the record's appearance: Both sides grade a strong EX, with no distortion and only very light surface noise occasionally audible.
