Pressings
The earliest pressing on file here is a 1965 US Blue Note mono, BLP 4176, with deep groove and an RVG stamp; a Plastylite-ear mono carries the same number that year, and the stereo BST 84176 runs alongside it. Blue Note repressed both through 1977. For a modern copy, Cisco Music's numbered 180g CLP7051 from 2007 is the serious reissue; the 1981 Japanese GXK-8222 is a clean cheaper option.
