Hi

I've two copies of this one and I would like to know which one is the original one (at least earlier one).

Bothe are on the FAB label (MS1) and have the yellow cover as on this page:

http://www.roots-archives.com/release/4176

The first one has yellow front and back cover (front is laminated) there is just "Printed in England" at the bottom of the back cover. The label is orange and the matrix are: "NS + 1" and "NS + 2". Yes it's an N and not an M as state on the label!

The second has a yellow front cover and a white back cover (front is also laminated). There is "Printed in England by West Brothers - Printers - Limited, Mitcham" at the bottom of the back cover. The label is light blue and the matrix are: "MS 1 2//1 420" and "MS 1//1 420".

Anyone have info?

thanx

You mean the one with NS 1 // NS 2 mat# and the orange label. I also think it's the earlier but I'm not sure at all.

Thanx for helping.
