JANIS JOPLIN - Pearl

Item Description

Vinyl, , Pitman Pressing
LP Album Quadraphonic

[l=Columbia Records Pressing Plant, Pitman] pressing denoted by small "P" stamp after matrix in each runout.
This version says "STEREO" on labels under the catalog number.

Runout notes for both sides:
Customatrix "o" and Pitman "P" are very faint.
"PQ" is hand etched, everything else is stamped.

Writing credits differ between cover and labels, with cover not listing some co-writers and misspelling Kristofferson's name. Label credits are used for completeness.

In 1974, the price on this album was raised by $1 with a corresponding catalog number alteration to PCQ 30322. Copies of CQ 30322 are often found with black stickers over the original number on the upper spine, with the original "CQ" catalog number on labels. These are post-manufacture and not to be treated separately from the original release.
