The RCA Victor Record Prevue is a counterfeit bootlegged in the 1970s. SPA-7-37 was never originally released on the RCA Victor Record Prevue label. This bootleg can be found with no other RCA releases listed on back. Also note that the matrix number is incorrect for Side 2. Rather than G2NH-7321, it should be G2NH-7232.
