JANIS JOPLIN/I GOT DEM OL' KOZMIC BLUES AGAIN MAMA S 63546 (-69) UK
This is not about the music. The album is a true classic by one of the biggest artists and has been written about a lot already. Issued in US September -69 (Columbia KCS 9913) first with titles stickered on cover, later pressings had print. Less known is also in UK the first few copies had a cover different to all later pressings. Most recognized original covers with this record are unlaminated and have the seventies style to logo and back-side text, but the ones pressed at the very end of 1969 had a remaining sixties mode. They were made by "West Brothers", are thicker and have laminated front. The text "CBS stereo records can be played..." on back is in a large rectangle and the CBS logo on front and back has the record number on top, all UK CBS pressings from 1970 and later had "stereo" on top. Copies with the later cover, if having the "SBPG" matrix stamp on record, can still be counted as originals, but this is the earliest variation. Since there are many collectors looking for UK first and I often se issues with the seventies cover sold as "absolutely first" or "very first" I thought someone would appreciate the information. Details from the cover below. (FÄV*)
