UK releases Inner Notes.  La copertina interna del disco inglese (inner sleeve) ha avuto, nel corso degli anni, diversi motivi, che, per la particolarità del disco, abbiamo raccolto in queste note, almeno le principali conosciute dai collezionisti; si è passati dal un inner nero ad uno bianco, poi con varie scritte e motivi. Stranamente la EMI inglese dava la possibilità alle stamperie di variare l'inner, secondo le loro esigenze, ed in quegli anni ha prodotto/commissionato una certa varietà di inners, diversi per forma, colore, carta, scritte, flipbacks, molti di questi stampati contemporaneamente, aumentando il disagio per i collezionisti.
