Pressings
The earliest we list is the 1969 US Blue Note, BST 84299, stereo in the Unipak gatefold, and most of those copies carry an RVG stamp. Pitman and All Disc pressings both show up in that first year, alongside a Canadian copy, Germany's BST 84 299 K and South Africa's BLC 84299. Blue Note kept repressing the same number through 1973 and reissued it in 2009 as BLP 4299. Stereo only in our data.
Showing the first pressing, audiophile reissues and copies carrying a collector marker, out of 25 pressings on file.
