Comments:
amazing specimen / nice STRONG VG all the way around (low end VG+) // The sleeve is sound with laminate generally in good shape. a few crinkles here and there but the main field is clean with maybe just a hint of "ringwear" where the sheen is minimally dulled. some moderate corner wear and mild edge wear // the vinyl is glossy and clean with a small handful of faint surface marks. nothing significant here. ultrasonically cleaned and stored in highend sleeves
 

Notes:

Fully laminated gatefold sleeve.

Sometimes known as the ghost text version, the inside cover has blue text track listing. Underneath the blue text a different track order can be seen:

The rejected tracklist can be heard on [r747363 and [r2479100.

This ghost text version is part of 'day of release' copies, along with the white type regular first version.
There is also a version that has the Track logo and the credits in white instead of blue, this one: [r24758495.

Side A is backed with side D, side B is backed with side C.
Inners have the British patent no. 800513 & 973939 --- Made in England 098 & 108.

Gatefold opens to view inner spread (glued to outer cover's inside tabs as separate element). Gloss laminate may expose matt areas on all four edges because of laminate shrinkage. (Effectively, the sleeve is a flattened 2-piece cardboard tube.)

Hendrix portrait on the right-hand side (back cover behind it).
Large sepia images of Redding & Mitchell on the left (front cover behind it), with blue tracks/credits text below. 'Track Record' logo center, 'Ernest J. Day' print data to the left. Erratic use of upper & lower-case in titles.
