This is the first edition, 1982 black vinyl release.
Matrix Numbers: Side A: SECOND 1A 'a6 Side B: SECOND 1B 'a6 (there is a paragraph" symbol after each matrix #)
This vinyl is superb condition - no scratches, smudges or skips.
Some songs are slightly muffled/muddy. The pops/clicks you hear are inherent in the recordings, most notably on "Loop." Remember, this LP was compiled in part from other vinyl sources and for those old enough to remember, flexi-discs were CRAP!

Notes: "And So On" is the sequel to "Etc.," including a collection of various rarities. It offers extensive liner notes by Philip Milstein.
"Guess I'm Falling In Love" is not the same version as the track from the Peel Slowly And See box set. "Pale Blue Eyes" is from La Cave, October 2, 1968 tape - it doesn't include the false start but has the famous alternate lyrics. "Stephanie Says" is different mix than official LP VU version.
DO THE OSTRICH, MOTHERFUCKERS!!
