    Everything points to me having this edition of the album. The label, the print, the font is exactly the same as my copy, but my Run Out is stamped as - (Side 1) XLP44804 1E & (Side 2) XLP44805 1G
    Anyone else with the same issue, and or can clear-up the discrepancy?

      This LP was in the freebie pile at Gravity Records in Wilmington NC and decided to come home with me. After scrubbing with Record Doctor, the dusty side A shined; and the record plays well with some crackling left. Maybe Johnny Mathis is a guilty pleasure, falling so far inside the "easy listening" category, but he has such a lovely voice, such control, phrasing, pitch, that for me, he is a joyful pleasure. This set is unapologetically romantic. Even the slow arrangement on "Bye Bye Blackbird" transforms the song to intimate longing. The standards "I Concentrate On You" and "In the Still of the Night" glow.
