I don't recall seeing it in any specimen books. Don't see anything like it in Solo or P-L. Might have been custom.

Since there's not a single curved line in it, this would have been a slam dunk to draw by hand, even in 1973.

How about the other style used on the cover?:

If this one is a typeface, I'd guess that the other one is as well (but anything's possible).

I would say the same about that one. The zig-zag pattern is different in the two "res" sequences, but that is probably because it was added after the letters were assembled/set/drawn. It's possible this was a film font, but definitely not a wood typeface because of the top of the "b". It wouldn't have been designed like that.

I remember listening to this album in college. Really good, as I recall. Better than their later stuff.

*sigh* Unfortunately, yes.
