Enoch Light Discotheque

Pickwick Jacket
Original Command Jacket

I Want To Hold Your Hand
Enoch Light And His Orchestra
Discotheque
Command/Pickwick SPC-3639 (1964) 1978

Here's an interesting reissue on a budget label. I can't find this record on the two Light online discographies.

The cover is a cheap and awful attempt to recapture the great look and feel of jacket art that was Light's Command label produced.

And what is more interesting is why would Pickwick think that they could get away with reissuing an LP produced in 1964, marketing the album like it was a 1970s disco recording?
