The Wild, The Innocent & The E Street Shuffle

1st issue, 2nd print of this release. The "KC" cat# prefix was used for prints from the release in November 1973 until July 1975, when the album was re-released around the time of "Born To Run" and Springsteens major breakthrough. At that time the "KC" prefix was replaced by the "PC" prefix. The Matrix# ending "2B" places the copy in time and record plant. "2" means second print, "B" indicates the record plant. Copies with matrixes ending in "1C" would accordingly be 1st pressings from another plant. Recording Details Recorded at 914 Sound Studios, Blauvelt, New York.
