1st pressings have the AB-1006 matrix and came in a glossy gatefold sleeve with a glossy card lyric inner sleeve.

The AB was an ABC label price-code, and approximately two weeks after the release of the album the price was raised $1.00 and subsequent pressings were AA-1006.

The earliest pressings have ‘KENDUN’ in the run-off grooves, some AB pressings do not and have the same 1006-(RE-3) run off matrixes as the second pressings, only the AB-1006 or AA-1006 differs (initial AA-1006 pressings have a crossed out ‘B’).

All these pressings are on the red/yellow/orange ABC label.
