Sorry for the crappy image. This is just to satisfy my own curiosity. I'm talking about the 'Stereo-mono' symbol. Does this mean it was recorded mono and converted to stereo? The album was released in 1974.

It means that the grooves are going to work in both a mono and stereo turntable.

Here is an interesting video on the matter
