I've got the same vinyl issue as Merdeyeux. Got it around 1980 or '81, I think. I posted this on a Greil Marcus thread:

Definitely "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)."

Played it today.
"The bells of St Mary" is one that will get zero, but is pretty great.

so 'back to MONO' was a 'thing' of his from years back, judging by the badge. i thought it was just the title of his 1991 box set.

I only this year noticed the Ronettes version of "Sleigh Ride" excises over half the song, chopping out both the "wonderland of snow" and "perfect ending of a perfect day"/"pumpkin pie" verses.

Is there a good section on one of the Spector books about the making of this album? I know there was a MOJO mag piece maybe ten years ago. I’d love to read more.
