Sleeve and centre labels state 33 1/3 RPM but record plays at 45 RPM.

I noticed that too and I was wondering if it because they wanted to keep the artwork and text as close as possible to the original release (since the speed appears on the back of the sleeve as well) or if it was just an oversight, seeing as how they changed the text on side 2 (dropping "The" from "Overture", adding "1." for the track number when it's the only track on that side and that doesn't appear on the originals). When I first saw that, I knew it would cause confusion.

yea, that about sent me for a loop. I read 33 1/3 and then changed the speed.

Cover and label both show 33 1/3 r.p.m. but it's a 45 r.p.m.Includes small leaflet.
