That's my review at the foot of the page.
For the real completist - how about the Sundazed gold vinyl version?

The wildly inappropriate Woolworth's photo to the Archetypes series reissue of White Light/White Heat (which, by the way, doesn't even mention by name the album it's a reissue of) is a good example of the level of thought and care given to budget-line products in that era.This 2014 reissue, made from the original masters ...
