My copy has LP1 featuring sides A+D and LP2 with sides B+C. Is that the case with everyone else's copy or am I the owner of a (rare) misprint? Thanks. Love the album by the way!

Terrible. Stacking records that way caused scuffs & scratches.

I've always wondered this myself, as my copy also has discs with sides 1/4 and 2/3. It seems this was the intended way the album was pressed. It's interesting because this forces the listener to pause and switch discs after the opening first side, but then you get an easy transition through the middle of the album, and once more a pause and switch for its conclusion. I assumed this was a decided conceptual choice by Yoko. However, it's worth noting that the 2017 Secretly Canadian vinyl reissue of AIU doesn't follow the original LP's 1/4 2/3 sequence.

I have the 1973 UK pressing (not a US pressing like the Discogs entry where you commented). Mine is "normal", in that sides A & B are on one record, C & D on another.However, it was not uncommon in those days for 2xLPs to have side A&D on 1 record and B&C on the other. I have numerous releases like this. These pressings were designed for use with turntables equipped with "stackable spindles" that allowed automatic play of multiple pieces of vinyl. Both records are loaded onto the turntable spindle. Side A plays 1st, then the second piece of vinyl (with side B facing up) automatically drops down the stacker spindle and plays on the deck. Once sides A and B play automatically, the user simply flips the stack of records and reloads them on the turntable such that side C drops first, then side D. Google "turntable stackable spindle" and you'll find plenty of pictures and videos. So I doubt your copy is truly a rarity, but some people prefer the stackable pressing format for 2xLPs. As such, stackable pressings may have marginally different values that "normal" pressings. I do not know Discogs' guidelines about having separate listings for stackable pressings, but it seems like there should be one.
