What is this thing?

It would appear to have the same content as The Paul Simon Song Book, but is anyone sure?

Since we like to pick nits here, the LP was hardly recorded "before" Garfunkel. Another interesting tidbit: I've never seen this LP in mono, but the JPN copy claims to be. And that's a 1970's style JPN CBS label, isn't it? Weird.

Random point: I have this on CDR back home, if anybody wants it when I have access to it.

Sourced from?

I've got a barely-played LP as part of the Paul Simon Collected Works box. If you want, we can make that part of Dylan Day, whenever that might happen.

What do you mean? I thought it was *only* available in mono.

Sorry, I kinda misspoke...I mean I have the Songbook on CD, sourced from vinyl. Haven't listened to it much.

I think it is only mono, but every LP I've seen has it listed as stereo (jacket and label).

I did some poking around the Paul Simon usenet archives, and it looks like this JPN LP is the same as Song Book. Interestingly, one person claimed there were separate catalog #s in the UK for mono and stereo pressings.

David Goodwin -> I know it's sourced from vinyl, but which LP was used? Original UK? UK reissue? Early 80s US? Just curious.

I have absolutely no idea, actually.
