I think you may have answered your own question there...

That was a pre release right? I was nosey and looked on Popsike.

One of the rarest LPs in my collection. This is a pre-release version of FRESH - an UNRELEASED VERSION. It was handed out by CBS for reviews. When the released version came out some months later, it was VERY DIFFERENT - different tempos, different mixes.

It is indeed very rare, according to this guy's popsike listing

Too bad the interest in Sly and the Family stone collectables is fading

[treeboy]

Collectability aside, they are different mixes, how does it sound to you Andy20066?

And looks like I just made a fool of myself on a public forum. Mind you, reading the popsike blurb implies it came in a plain white sleeve - which obviously there's no proof that it did. Or didn't...

Although, looks like the white sleeve theory is becoming a recognised fact:

Hang on... I think you may have answered your own question there.

Nice one Andy

Wonder if Andy's been following any of this?

Damn - but where's he going to find a 'plain white sleeve'? - too far out, man.....
