"An E.M.I. recording, released for its members in Australia by World Record Club."

Australian WRC pressing, sourced from original stampers and featuring unique sleeve art. "R. 03176" on sleeve, "R-03176" on labels. Reissued at least three times - the sleeve and label layout is the same on all, but they are in different colours - yellow, green, tan and blue-grey. The green and the yellow are the most common, and were no doubt the first issued. Also issued on cassette. The usual "stereo" is on the bottom left of the blue 'herald' labels, and the stereo rosette appears on the back of the sleeve, but the matrix numbers are mono, and it does have "mono" at the top of the labels. This would normally have been a Retrospect Series LP, but the series seems to have been abandoned shortly before this appeared - it resurfaced a couple of years later, but the gold labels were gone.
