Notes
Later East coast pressing.
MGM Record Manufacturing Division pressing identified by a "block-shaped 'S'" stamped in the runouts.
Gatefold sleeve with banana sticker: the Emerson 'torso' image is airbrushed out of the back cover photo. (The "third version")
Label identifiers:
- A 2.75" pressing ring (versus a small 1.25" ring on the very similar The Velvet Underground & Nico).
-"Side 1" and "Side 2" instead of "Side A" and "Side B".
- Song credits for 'European Son' are shown as "Reed - Cale - Morrison - Tucker" (instead of "L. Reed - J. Cale - S. Morrison - M. Tucker").
-"Three Prong Music / All Selections BMI" appears under the final track on each side (instead of "All Selections Three Prong Music, Inc. BMI").
Runouts are etched except for the "block-shaped S" or scroll-shape and the trailing plate numbers/letters which are stamped.
"MGM RECORDS - A DIVISION OF METRO-GOLDWYN-MAYER, INC. - Made in U.S.A."

An iconic record this, deserving of its legendary status. The sound on this original pressing is all encoming and feral. I dislike how subsequent versions have been ‘enhanced’, but then again you are going to have be very lucky and possess pretty deep pockets if you want to add this particular release to your collection.
