    My mum’s copy of this, bought when it came out, played thousands of times by her and her teenage friends, left in damp attics, treated roughly for year and years, still somehow sounds fantastic. The pressing is so hot it just burns through the crackles and absolutely rocks.

          Which pressing this version is? Could it be a 4th pressing from 1963 or 5th? Thanks!
