Mission of Burma - Trem Two / Okay/No Way

I remember when Ryko reissued some Mission of Burma in the late 90's. I didn't buy the records but I did pick up a promo cassette which I still have. I do have a wonderful avant garde LP from Bridsongs of the Mesozoic, which was another band that Roger Miller, leader of Mission of Burma was in. A few of their 45s are on my want list so I was happy to pick up recently this first pressing via mailorder inexpensively. But when I put it on the turntable this weekend I was horrified that it was wavy. If you notice in the picture, the opening is not standard but more oblong. Luckily, I was able to position it at an upper edge and it played great...trajedy averted.
