The Royal Scam

Engineered at ABC Studios in Los Angeles and at A&R Studios in New York. Special thanks to Larry Carlton and Mr. Garry Sherman. Printed in U.S.A. All songs published by ABC/Dunhill Music, Inc. (BMI). ℗©1976, ABC Records, Inc. ABCD 931 on spine and cover; ABCD-931 on labels. ABC-era pressing released after MCA acquired the company in 1979; cover stamped in gold with "Platinum Plus MCA-37044." Side A matrix closely matches pressing variants of The Royal Scam and The Royal Scam. Side B matrix is similar to pressings such as The Royal Scam but without a circled number following the catalog number. ABC multicolor concentric circle labels. Text layout on labels may be different than on similar versions; Side A Track 5 appears on two lines (such as The Royal Scam and The Royal Scam) rather than on three lines (such as The Royal Scam). Cardstock inner sleeve includes an RCA Music Service catalog number (source: The Royal Scam) that appears nowhere else on the release (same as The Royal Scam). "Ƨ P" in Side A matrix, and "A 2 P" in Side B matrix are faint stamps. "P" (indicating Columbia Records Pressing Plant, Pitman) appears before the catalog numbers (both sides), "Ƨ" appears between the catalog number and lacquer initials (Side A only), and "A 2" appears at about 6 o'clock from the catalog number (Side B only).
