Pressings
Every copy on file carries the same number, BST 84334, so the labels are what separate them. The earliest we list is a 1970 US blue-and-white-label gatefold; a blue-and-black-label gatefold and an All Disc pressing are also dated 1970, as is a German issue. Blue Note's 2011 French 180-gram gatefold reissue keeps that same catalog number, which makes label detail the only reliable check.
