    My copy came with the original inner sleeve in color. Is there any chance that this pressing from 1978 had the inner sleeve in color as well as in black and white?

        The Promo copy's are outstanding! Very clear and very dynamic sounding. All the promo copy's I've owned are the Los Angeles pressings with "LW 1 F.E. / LW 1 or LW 1 F.E. / LW 2" in the deadwax and have the black & white inner sleeve with the pink WB promo sticker on the cover. They also were released in February of 1978 to the major radio stations. If you can find one don't hesitate, buy it. It's that good!!!

          Is the track listing on the back cover not in correct order on all versions?
