Yes, it is complete, everything that is on the 12" LP is on this 10". I added a pic to the OP from the back of the jacket so you can see that it is the same. When I saw that, I had the same thoughts as you, which is why I didn't expect much out of it, but I was surprised. It probably works OK because it isn't a very long record, probably not more than 35 minutes of music, which can be fit onto a 10" record without too much problem. I haven't compared the levels, but it does not seem to have been mastered at a particularly low level. It just goes to show what a black art mastering records is. There are so many factors that can potentially affect the quality that it's nearly impossible to make assumptions about whether a record will be any good or not.There is a UK Victrola that was pressed by Decca. With a little effort I'm sure I can dig one of those up for a reasonable price. I would not be surprised if the Victrola was pressed from the same stampers as the SB. There was never a Stereo Treasury or Ace of Diamonds issue of this that I know of. I think some of it may have appeared on one of the Decca SPA "World of..." discs, which can be good.
