Pressings
Skye Records SK-7 is the record: 1968 US stereo in a gatefold, run off at several plants -- Monarch, Terre Haute, Premier, Sonic, Capitol. The Monarch copy is the earliest we list and the only one noting a laminated sleeve. Buddah picked it up as BDS-7 in 1971 with tie-dye labels. Modern Harmonic's MH-8041 at 180 gram is the clean 2020 option; Spain's SKLP-1001 and the Ebalunga EBL-003LP repressings circulate too.
Showing the first pressing, audiophile reissues and copies carrying a collector marker, out of 52 pressings on file.
