Notes

Recorded February 3, 1959 and April 22, 1959.

The back cover lists "Flamenco Sketches" as the fourth track and "All Blues" as the last track, which is incorrect. However, the labels list the tracks in the correct order, which is reflected in the tracklist on this page.

This version can be differentiated from the other 1959 stereo pressings by the labels:
First, there is misprinted version with an error in the track order on the side B label.
Second, there is another version with "Kind Of Blue" printed on one line on the side B label.
Third, there is another version with slightly different typesetting that is most distinguishable in the width of the characters that form the catalog number and "Stereo Fidelity" at the top of the labels.

There is also a CBS" in the upper center area, but are otherwise very similar to the Columbia '6-eye' labels on this version.
