On LP, yes.  I also have it and have compared it with the edited Reprise 
LPs, mono and fake stereo.  It IS also on CD in true stereo unedited, 
but not in the U.S..  EMI Eclipse 844 241-2  which also has the other 
concert album (Revisited) in mono in the version issued on the British 
LP and the American CD, both sides from the U.S.
