Notes

UK 1st press (stereo), with 3-tab flipback cover. Laminate front, unlaminated back.
"Printed and made by Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd. Patent No.943,895 S/VLP9237" at bottom-right glue-tab.

℗1969 [on sleeve back]
℗1968 [on labels]
"MGM Records Limited, London, England" (Verve logo).
"M.G.M. Records Ltd. Made In Gt. Britain" on label radius text.
Labels just title the release "Ruben And The Jets". They also declare;
"Sold in U.K. subject to retail price conditions. See Price Lists"
(No tax code imprints are present).

Part of Tripp's name amusingly appears as "Dyre", instead of "Dyer".
