    Excellent and warm sounding recording, this release is really fantastic sonically compared to the 50th Anniversary remastered edition, it has plenty of space, midrange, treble and bass and overall much more dynamics

      I doubt that this is a 1975 pressing. I have the exact same pressing with exactly the same anomalies as is pictured on the side 2 label. There's a very thin white streak through the left side of the "r" box, "SIDE 2" bumps into the rim text, and the letter "A" in the word "Each" of the song title "People Take Pictures of Each Other" is only half printed onto the label. I bought my copy around 1983, and it was stored in a plastic inner sleeve with lots of little blue WB logos printed on it. These weren't in use in 1975. Also, "STEREO" in bold print at the 6 o'clock position of the label above the rim text was still in use in 1975, as was a shorter rim text without a Warner logo. I really believe it might be a very late 70's or very early 80's pressing.
