### Special Note regarding the original LP:
although this record is on the Verve label, it actually was
manufactured by Capitol Records and that is why it bears an "SW"
catalog number in addition to the usual Verve "V/V6-" catalog number.
On the webmaster's own copy of this LP, the Verve catalog
number is only on the front of the album and the Capitol catalog
number is on the back cover, both sides of the record label and the
spine of the album! The front album cover is definitely done in
Capitol's paper quality and lacks the high gloss finish of typical
Verve albums from this same period. A partial label scan
(magnified) to show Capitol Records Mfg. and their catalog number is
below:

According to the explanation received from
Claus Ogerman himself, written on September 22, 2003, he states that
Capitol Records often manufactured Verve's LPs and that is why
Capitol's name and catalog number appears on some (but not all) Verve
records. It should be noted that on the webmaster's copy of
this LP, the paper quality and printing on the record label is poor
and definitely not up to Verve (or even Capitol's) typical standards.
It's almost as if the label was photocopied on dark paper.
