Notes
Gatefold jacket and runout stamps are identical to Now He Sings, Now He Sobs, but labels differ. This release has gunmetal gray labels with Sold State logo at left of blue vertical line and artist, title, song credits, and other info at right. Labels include "LIBERTY UA, INC., LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA" in white lettering on bottom rim. Likely 1970-72 release due to format similarity with Blue Note Liberty UA labels of that period; see
Catalog # on front cover SS18039; inside gatefold, on spine, and on labels SS 18039.
