hey all - anyone with an OG of Herbie's Sextant to hand?
Mine has a thin card sleeve, not the heavier 'tip-on' style which all the other Columbia stuff in '73 seems to have.
Had this for years and only just noticed listening to it this weekend. Discogs not much help, apart from with codes, label designs, run-outs etc. Loads of versions of this.....
The thinness (and whiteness) of the sleeve is making me think it's a late 90's reish, but it isn't glossy like they all were. The inner sleeve is also remarkably white and with the rounded corners, which is what I was used to seeing in the 90's.
Also, the sales history on Popsike - there is one seller who commented that this title never came out with the heavy jacket. Strange if that's true. Wonder if Columbia wasn't putting much money behind the band at this time? It's the 3rd and final Mwandishi before the Headhunters sound kicks in.

I checked some other '73 Columbia's and they have those covers - even my Sun Goddess raer in '74 has it!
