    Didn't anybody notice that "Love One Another" is a different version than the one on the Anthology CD? Slightly slower here, different vocals, different percussions... I would say a different take, really

      An excellent pressing, much better than later reissues.
      If you are unsure between the 1977 pressings and those from after the 80s/90s, I recommend those from 1977.
      With a much more dynamic sound, big bass forward and everything that goes with it

        What an incredible album. Sure, there's a couple of mediocre tracks, but the first two a stone-cold bangers. The guitar in Funky Monkey separates the boys from the men. Happy Beat is a jolly little jam. Holiday... if there's one t i've played more than any other at a restaurant or bar gig, it's Holiday. Even the white boys in polo shirts and yacht loafers look up and go "hey, this is hot".
