USA MONO BUT PLAYS STEREO MISPRESS VINYL ALBUM WITH POSTER AND GENERIC WHITE INNER SLEEVE. This version is an unusual misprint/mispress, having the Mono 'KCL 2663' catalogue number on the sleeve and on the Mono labels, with the Stereo 'XSM' matrix numbers on the labels at right and in the runouts. It is not simply a mislabelled disc, as the label itself represents as both mono and stereo. It plays stereo throughout. Runout matrices are followed by small P on both sides, indicating that this was pressed at Columbia Records Pressing Plant, Pitman. The rear sleeve bottom right has a small '1', indicating that it was printed by the Modern Album Finishing Co. press in Terre Haute, IN. 

MATRIX: SIDE A: o XSM117277-1E P C-3 / SIDE B: o XSM117278-1E P C-1.

SLEEVE: VERY GOOD+, SOME SHELF, CORNER, EDGE AND RING WEAR. EDGE SCUFFS.  POSTER EXCELLENT MINUS. INNER SLEEVE VERY GOOD+ WITH NO SEAM SPLITS.

DISC: VERY GOOD+. ONE SCRATCH SIDE A THAT CLICKS A FEW TIMES ON TRACK 5, OTHERWISE JUST SOME HAIRLINES AND PLAY SCUFFS. CLEAN LABELS.

Why buy a first or early pressing and not a re-issue or a ‘re-mastered’ vinyl album?

First and early pressings are pressed from the first generation lacquers and stampers. They usually sound vastly superior to later issues/re-issues (which, in recent times, are often pressed from whatever 'best' tapes or digital sources are currently available) - many so-called 'audiophile' new 180g pressings are cut from hi-res digital sources…essentially an expensive CD pressed on vinyl. Why experience the worse elements of both formats? These are just High Maintenance CDs, with mid-ranges so cloaked with a veil as to sound smeared. They are nearly always compressed with murky transients and a general lifelessness in the overall sound. There are exceptions where re-masters/re-presses outshine the original issues, but they are exceptions and not the norm.

First or early pressings nearly always have more immediacy, presence and dynamics. The sound staging is wider. Subtle instrument nuances are better placed with more spacious textures. Balances are firmer in the bottom end with a far-tighter bass. Upper-mid ranges shine without harshness, and the overall depth is more immersive. Inner details are clearer, the music tends to sound more ‘alive’ and vibrant and you 'hear' what the mixing and mastering engineers wanted you to hear when they first recorded the music.
