Asylum/Elektra/Atlantic/Warner Bros P-1287W/P-1289E/P-1291Y/P-1293Y (Japan) - scan of outer sleeve by Hans Seegers

Record 1:

On A Night Like This by Bob Dylan and The Band from Planet Waves (Asylum P-1293Y) - the commercial single was backed by You Angel You.
For 1974 commercial single releases of On A Night Like This see Mono 7" Singles & EPs 1970-76 and  below.

In The Mood by Bette Midler (Atlantic P-1291A) - this comes from her 1973 Atlantic debut album Bette Midler which had the same cover design. Bette Midler shares vocal with Bob on her version of Buckets Of Rain on a track from her Atlantic album Songs For The New Depression, see 1976. She also appears as part of the ensemble USA For Africa on the charity single We Are The World, see 1985.

Asylum/Elektra/Atlantic/Warner Bros P-1287W/P-1289E/P-1291Y/P-1293Y (Japan) - scan of inner sleeve by Hans Seegers

With the first variant (left), the placing of "STEREO" as the last line on the right suggest it was pressed at Specialty Record Corp, Olyphant, PA. With the second variant (right), the placing of "STEREO" as the top line suggests it was pressed at Santa Maria, CA. For details of Asylum pressing plants in the USA, see below.

For US and international stereo singles with You Angel You as the B-side, see below.

Thanks to Hans Seegers for information and scans.

1. "STEREO" above the catalogue numbers to the right of the centre hole
2. "STEREO" in much larger type above the catalogue numbers to the right of the centre hole
3. "STEREO" below the publishing information (which is printed on three lines) - this variant was also supplied to juke boxes
4. "STEREO" between the catalogue number and the publishing information (which is printed on three lines)
5. "STEREO" between the catalogue number and the publishing information (which is printed on two lines)

This implies that 1 and 2 were pressed at Santa Maria, CA, 3 was pressed at Specialty Record Corp, Olyphant, PA, and 4 and 5 were pressed at Terre Haute, IN - see below.

As far as I know this is the only pairing of these two live songs from Before The Flood to be commercially released worldwide. Endless Highway is miscredited to Bob Dylan and The Band when it should be to The Band only (as Stage Fright above).

The German single is also available as a white label promo in the same sleeve. The commercial Spanish single sleeve has a French-style "languette" index tab, missing from the promo sleeve. For more information about languettes, see 1965. The Spanish promo sleeve has printed promo information in Spanish and the A-side title is translated as "No soy yo, nena". On the commercial sleeve this has been changed to "No soy yo, baby"! This change is also on the A-side record label.
