Canadian stuff

[JohanD]

Talking about Canadian releases/pressings.
I'm immediately reminded of this one.
Of all my pressings of "That's the way it is" (among them Japan or UK), the original Canadian pressing from 1970 is to my ears the best sounding one.
In fact, it's so good, i've got two of them!

can you post a picture of the label please?? thanks

Sure, here you go.

Here's the original commercial from 1973. I believe it was a company out of Toronto, Canada.

Is this release exclusive to Canada as I thought the U.S issued it first??

It was distributed by Brookville in the U.S. and by Tee Vee Records in Canada (out of Edmonton).
