STEREO COPIES OF THIS VINYL SOLD IN MUCH SMALLER QUANTITIES, DUE TO THE VERY HIGH COST OF STEREO PLAYBACK EQUIPMENT IN THE 1960,s. 

For consumers, the issue was also about expense. Anyone who wanted to listen to music in stereo would have to replace their MONO phonograph or turntable.

 They would also have to either buy a second mono amplifier or replace their mono amplifier with a stereo model. They would also have to buy a second speaker.

 Buying what was essentially a second hi-fi system in order to play stereo records was a major expense, and for the first few years that stereo records were available, they sold in tiny amounts compared to mono pressings.
