Not quite on topic, but I have a copy of XX-1.  Cook always had a sense of
humour that came through in his liner notes and production; having seen old
catalogue listings for Audiodisc products, and specifically their premium
'Red Master' lacquers (which were labelled as to which side the factory
determined was the best for cutting all-important masters for pressings),
I'd have to wonder if his use of the 'wrong' side of one of these lacquers
for side 1 of my copy wasn't part of it?  It's very hard to see, but I was
able to make out that the indented lettering around and near the spindle
hole reads 'AUDIODISC - USE OTHER SIDE'!
