After or about 1966(?), there was an alternate (Capitol) Rubber Soul stereo master tape edit which was residing in New York and wound-up being sent to the Scranton, PA factory for repressings/reissues of the album to serve the Northeast market. However, THIS version had been given Dave Dexter's REVERB treatment(!) ![:o](//storage.proboards.com/1960644/images/GowCXAvfMToKPZsJREgz.png) Not to the extreme, of course, like "Second Album" or "Beatles '65"...but with a noticeably compressed 'mush' layered on it; distinct from 99+% of the commonly heard one from the West Coast source. An external indicator of when you *might* have come across a copy is, if: the "New Dimensional Stereo" banner is in a separate, white border across the cover and not as-part of the photo proper. Other identifiers may include: a particular symbol/numeric code for the Scranton factory as well as, on the record itself, a specific matrix number (which I don't know the exact details of because I'm not a record collector and could care less about the format). From a taped copy I uploaded, the one track you can tell the difference by right away (even having used a Y-patch cable into a rather cheap smartphone's input for the upload):

Sounds mono to me. And "mushy", yes.
