Comments:

Another cracking release from Vigotone with the early mixes of Abbey Road material which has been speed corrected on the whole and the McCartney/Donovan Session being available for the first time from tape source.

There are currently 3 known screen printings of the Glass pressed disc , more may turn up to rival the five variations for Vigotone's Revolution title also released in 1994.

Clearly different side by side, with different fonts and sizes but more difficult if you own or are thinking of buying one.

So I have picked out the odd key feature to assist, but the disc haas to be the main clue.
