1978 original stereo mix pressing of their 1968 2nd LP classic, this is a UK glossy cover re-issue (probably the last pressing on vinyl of the original heavy fader mix) no song separations on the vinyl grooves, this has an "embossed / indented" Warner W on the back below the label number (K 46021 / K 46021).

Personally I have no way to confirm that this is the original mix but sure is quite crazy, love it, I guess Lesh redid it in 72 from what I can tell on Wikipedia (please chime in if it's not!) it was bought from a reputable mail order dealer from Goldmine back in the early 90's who said it was. It sounds like it to me personally. 

Matrix / Runout (Side A): K+46021+A STRAWBERRY W - 3

Matrix / Runout (Side B): K+46021+B STRAWBERRY W +2 KD

Track A1d is listed on the label but not on the back cover.

Track A2 title is mis-spelt as "New Potatoe Caboose" on the back cover.

 K 46021 X on both rear sleeve and spine, K 46021 on the labels.

Cream colored label with WB shield (top of label) & fore'warn in small print type all around + W white on black registered trademark logo and WEA records Ltd London address (bottom of label) = year 1978 Manufactured in the UK.

CONDITION:
This issue has the original mix I've been told (not sure how to tell but sure sounds weirder than the cd version) creased upper right corner, edgewear & some light creases on the edges, heavy lamination indented W on the back. Vinyl has just the slighest wear.

All records are BLACK VINYL unless noted & inserts/gatefold covers/posters/custom inner sleeves will be noted in the description if they are included plus promo & cut-out marks stated if they are there also. I don't believe in hiding stuff & try to note most everything that should matter to buyers. All 12" vinyl on ebay is automatically listed as 33 1/3 rpm & 7" vinyl as 45 rpm (to save time on listing all this stuff) if you need to confirm speed on a specific item please ask & I can go check.
