Unique Australian Release. First (one of five) label variation identifiable by larger STEREO notation, different font and layout of track-list, notably Baby You're a Rich Man and Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da. No dot next to the manufacturing credit on side 2.
EMI Australia asked EMI UK for a stereo mix of Penny Lane (EMI Australia apparently requested the stereo mix prior to Germany's issue of Magical Mystery Tour - which was released before The Essential Beatles), yet still used the mono mix of Baby You're A Rich Man.
Long Tall Sally has reversed channels.
Penny Lane runs slow with a noticable "warble".
Let It Be is the album remix, not the single.
