Compilation album originally released in the  US & Canada by Capitol Records in 1966.
This release is notorious for its controversial original cover photograph,  known as the "Butcher Cover". The initial response to the cover  from the estimated 60,000 advance copies was so negative that Capitol  recalled all 750,000 manufactured copies from its distributors for  repackaging with a more conventional photograph.
Butcher covers are generally divided into 3 categories: First state - Original unaltered version. Second state - First state cover with the new artwork  pasted over (generally known as a "Trunk Cover"). Third state - A second state copy where the pasted-on  Trunk cover image has been (fully or partially) removed,  revealing the Butcher cover photograph underneath.
The Record is in VG condition  and plays with out skips on my turntable
