Reviews

  • Paleophone's avatar
    Paleophone
    It appears this is a "stereo" cover with a stereo release number (9242), containing a record with the mono released number (242) which doesn't claim "stereo" or "stereophonic" anywhere on it. Does this version play mono or stereo, and does it play "Crepuscule With Nellie"? (Often missing in true stereo pressings.)

      Note that on this pressing Crepuscule With Nellie is missing!
