I have to agree that the Shroeder music version on side 1 is only concurrent but not earlier than the Robbins credited version.
My Robbins only copy weighs in at 140g and has a dished label area of the same design as my Simon & Garfunkel CBS originals from 1970 unlike the flat version pictured in the description. For what it's worth! -
There is a later mis-pressing of this album that wrongly contains the music from "Fifth", only with the sides flipped. No idea how common it is, but I have a friend who owns one. -
Edited 4 years agoWhy do you think the Shroeder music version on side 1 label is the very first pressing, and not in the other way??? That is not logic at all. On the other hand, observing the label it is a weaker flat version.
