    Mine is a Decca 1969 SKL 5019 but doesn't have a gatefold or an octagonal sleeve, it does have the mono/stereo hole and it correctly indicates the blue stereo line. Any idea what this one could be?

        Ive actually got the rare octagonal plain inner sleeve. Its actually got jagged cut edges along its 4 angled sides. Might be the rare time a plain inner sleeve is worth more than the rest of the album lol.

          This is a great record, I can't understand why it's so inexpensive. Easily one of the best Rolling Stone collections you could ever have. Sound quality is really nice too, sounds quite a bit better than my original pressings of the debut albums these songs are from..

            Hello, confirm that the vinyl in question with SKL 5019 corresponds to the UK version and then to the original. Thank you.

              I have a copy of this album which has octogonal sleeve but not in gatefold. The outside of the sleeve looks like the insides of the gatefold and therefor there is no album title on the sleeve? It appears to be a UK version (made in England on the label) and the catalog is SLK 5019, label identical to this one Through The Past, Darkly (Big Hits Vol. 2). I can't find this version in the huge number of releases. Can someone help me? Is this a new release that needs to be added or did I overlook something?
              Thanks
