If  you all are like me.....

I never had an OP.

My feeling is, any vinyl pressing is nice
robert53-

discogs is a great reference to check the pedigree.

Not enough info to check? My suspicion that is a later reissue. There were plenty of those around in the 70's.

Is there a bar code on the back? If so, definitely a reissue. Not a bad thing, just gives an idea how far off from a period press it is,hence,how far it is from "the master tape" and the stamper used.
It didn't show a date, so I suspected it was a later pressing, although it looks like something from the 70s ( just a guess ). I think you're right.
Surprise! My wife had her original album stored in a closet. She dug it out and I cleaned it. It has some light scratches on it, but not bad so I played it, and we both couldn't believe how good it sounded. It was way better than the SACD. What a pleasant surprise, I didn't even know she had that record. So tablejockey, slaw, and the rest of you guys, Thanks.
