Notes
When Blind Faith was promoted before release - there was a lot of 'outrage' because of the 'girl' cover. Many companies (and in some cases whole countries) refused to sell the LP with the 'girl' cover. Here in the UK it was expected that many shops would refuse to stock the LP with the 'girl 'cover' - so quickly another cover had to be developed. However many shops in the UK 'rolled over' and stocked the 'girl' cover anyway - which is of course is why the 'girl cover' is so common today. However a very very few shops decided not to stock it - and so this 'other' cover was developed. However not many of these covers were ever sold at all. The cover that was developed for shops that refused to sell the 'girl' cover is very different from the standard(and common) cover!!!!It is a single sleeve which is fully laminated. It is very probable that this mega rare cover was only stocked for a very short amount of time during the records chart run - and once the 'hype' and 'shock' about the cover had subsided - the few shops that had refused to stock the cover soon went back to stocking the standard cover.
