Care to share the matrix info for the colored press of Boxer?

 

My black US copy looks like this (cut by Wes Garland at Nashville Record Productions, pressed by United):

 

BBQLP-252-A L-16562M-A WG/NRP Ⓤ
BBQLP-252-B L-16562M-B WG/NRP Ⓤ
 
Doesn't sound brilliant.

 

Does anyone have a yellow copy to compare? If it actually does sound better (doubt it), I would definitely want to pick it up.

Bought the colored pressings, I've always thought the Boxer sounds nice. The Alligator for the most part does too, but I feel like my copy has a small bit of inner groove distortion. The Boxer is a solid yellow and the Alligator, while trying to be green is more of a really neon looking green or yellow. The records themselves are really thick, at least 180gm as where I think the black presses aren't.
