I've just acquired a sealed, apparently vintage stereo copy of "The Lonely Bull" LP, and I'm trying to identify approximately when it was pressed, without actually opening it (No need, as I have others to play). In comparing it to an opened copy from around 1965 (based on the albums shown on the inner sleeve), the main differences I detect are that the sealed copy has a noticeably clearer and more natural color cover photo, and on the back cover, a small number "4" in the lower right hand corner that doesn't appear on the '65 copy. Looking through the versions listed on Discogs, the only version I can find with the "4" on the cover is this one:
Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass - The Lonely Bull
If I'm not misreading it, this would make it an early copy. Does anyone know what that "4" indicates?
