    I have two copies of this lp, a long-time favorite.
    One is the translucent green vinyl w/ a smooth finish sleeve.
    The other is regular black vinyl, with a matte finish sleeve.

      I contend this is Pat's best work to date, and he has a massive catalog of musical art.
      This is my favorite due to the brilliant compositions and stunning performances by each group member.
      It is recorded beautifully with that lovely ting on the ride cymbal and high hat. Piano really has been reproduced well. Pat's trusty ES-175 sounds amazing as usual here.
      I've got both the US and German pressings of the "White Album", and I cannot say which I prefer better. Both are a treat.
