Somewhere Outside

Corrected pressing information based on verified physical evidence: Despite common claims found online, this white-label edition is not pressed from a different or “remastered” lacquer. All documented white-label copies share the exact same runouts found on the earliest multicolour copies: YT-40001 (crossed out) → YT-50001 (hand-corrected) This proves that the white-label batch belongs to the same initial production run as the early multicolour copies, cut from the same lacquer. No clean “50001” matrices (without the crossed-out “40001”) have ever been found on any genuine copy. Several published accounts — including Capitol6000 and anecdotal statements attributed to band members — suggest that the white label came after a first multicolour pressing. This appears to describe only the later, more common multicolour variant, not the earliest multicolour pressings (which also use the crossed-out “40001” matrix). Conflicting information exists about the size of the white-label run: ● some sources claim 330 copies, ● others claim 1,800 copies pressed, ● with only ~200 copies actually distributed due to pressing defects. Distribution credit remains “Distributed by Capitol Records (Canada) Ltd.”, confirming that this edition predates the Yorkville/Arc period. Runouts: YT-40001 (crossed out) / YT-50001 (hand-inscribed). Label: White with black text (Yorktown). Notes: Not a separate mastering; part of the same early Capitol-distributed run as the earliest multicolour copies. Two early sleeve variations exist within this same pressing: Variant 1: Front cover displays the Yorktown box logo in the top-right corner. Variant 2: Front cover without the Yorktown box logo. Both variants share identical runouts (YT-40001 scratched out → YT-50001 hand-corrected) and were distributed by Capitol Records (Canada) Ltd. These sleeve differences represent sub-variants of the same earliest pressing rather than separate editions. ⭐ VARIANT 1 — “With Yorktown box” Front: Box with Yorktown logo in the upper right corner Back: “Distributed by Capitol Records (Canada) Ltd.” Label: Multicolored Runout: YT-40001 crossed out → YT-50001 hand-engraved Probably the earliest of the group ⭐ VARIANT 2 — “Without Yorktown box” Front: No Yorktown box Back: “Distributed by Capitol Records (Canada) Ltd.” Label: Multicolored (same graphic style or with minimal differences) Runout: YT-40001 crossed out → YT-50001 hand-engraved Slightly later within the same first run Both are first pressings, but two sub-variants from the same batch.
