US 1st pressing (with the 1841 Broadway address on the labels), featuring Robert Ludwig's "hot" mastering on both sides.  These were withdrawn early because the high bass levels caused low-grade cartridges to mis-track, leading people to  return the album on the belief that it was defective. Another engineer was then hired to recut a much less "hot" version of  the album, the far more common version found today.
