    My copy came with two side G and H LPS and is missing the side C and D LP. Did this happen to anyone else?

      This pressing does not have "My Favorite Things' on it, nor "The Letter" transition (which I've never heard, as it was added after I bought my original CD version.) The 2019 CD reissue, OutKast - Speakerboxxx / The Love Below, also seems to omit MFT. Did a rights issue come up, regarding the Coltrane material?

        Phenomenal pressing, instantly takes me back to listening to this in my bedroom on CD when I was 12, still cant believe my parents let me buy it with my allowance. This album was my first exposure to hip hop and ignited a life long love of the genre. Revisiting it almost 20 years later is washing me with waves of nostalgia i didn't know possible.
