Listening to Electric Ladyland on the train today and ended up going to wikipedia to check out some details on the album. While reading I came across this interesting fact about vinyl production

[As was common with some multi-LP albums, sides one and four were pressed back to back on the same platter, likewise sides two and three. This was called auto-coupling and was intended to allow discs to be stacked on an automatic record-changer. In this case it has led to some CD releases to have the tracks in the incorrect one-four-two-three order.(e.g. “Voodoo Chile” followed by “Still Raining, Still Dreaming”)]

I was also reminded why I wanted a copy of the original album cover
