    My pink label also sounds shockingly amazing. One of the best sounding albums in my collection, like he is playing in the room with you.

      My 1970 UK pink label (ILPS 9135 A/B - 3 u STERLING LH) pressing of this landmark album sounds fantastic!

        Hi
        Just received an ebay purchase of this album, ILPS-9135, from 1970. The album and cover are in great condition and side 2 is as expected. Side 1 is not Cat Stevens, it is music I have not heard before!! Sounds more like a band with multiple vocalists.
        Does anyone know anything about this?
        Kind regards

          The 1971 film "Harold & Maude" used alot of the songs off of this record. Infact, all the songs and music in that movie are by Cat Stevens. Although a soundtrack was never released. So you can consider this record a half-soundtrack.
