Another testimony to show you always want to double-check that you've got
the right discs before you get too far from the store. Reckless and
Grammaphone in Chicago keep the sleeves on display and the discs behind
the counter (so they don't have to keep an eye on anyone). Especially for
a release like this there's a great opportunity for a mix-up when they
put the discs in the cases.
But the fact that the two discs -do- look different gets me to wondering.
Though as far as I know they don't come wrapped from the distributor and
could still have been mixed up somewhere along the line. I don't have
mine with me, but maybe someone else could say what exactly their 1st disc
looks like compared to the 2nd. All I remember is the labels were quite
similar.
