Walk Don't Run

SERIAL#: 8003
DATE: 1960-12

MISC NOTES:

Released in mono (BLP 2003) and stereo (BST 8003) formats.

The Ventures first lp. At the time the album cover photo was being shot the band was  not available. As such, "stand-ins" were used as the band members. However, the back cover featured a picture of the real band. Once this discrepancy was discovered, after initial shippings, in order to disguise the front-back photo difference,  the back photo was "covered over" by a pen and ink silhouette representation of the original photo. . Based on available "label design" evidence,  the lp, with the "covered" rear photo,  continued to be re-issued throughout the lifespan of Dolton Records.

First pressing featured Seattle address. Subsequent issues featured California address

Charted: #11 (1960 - 12)
