Default Sit Down Young Stranger/If You Could LP

Of course I know that "Sit Down Young Stranger" was retitled "If You Could Read My Mind."

I'm confused on another aspect.

I'm quite sure I have seen the album with no title - just the pic of him sitting. Am I imagining this?

Figuring I am not my qustion is what came first

No Title
Sit Down
If You Could

Is "No Title" the rarest and first?

Charlene or somebody must know.

I'm not the one who would know but in regurgitating what Val and others replied to barb's earlier ask on the newsgroup, seems the no title one was first:

Yes. I have a copy with no title on the front. Silly to a degree that they changed it but what the heck.

That's what I thought, thanks

FYI there are several copies of "Sit Down Young Stranger" on EBay right now if anyone is looking for one

There are about a half dozen copies in a box on the floor of my bedroom too. I had a compulsion to buy a copy of every variation I heard about!

I just looked back at that old newsgroup thread; amazing how much I knew in December 1998!
