On one of the vinyl copies I have (LP I'm sure) there's what sounds like a pre-echo effect on the drums.
Is that what you are referring to?

Yep, that's it. The reverb just sounds odd. I played it again and checked, it was the stereo version i have. I don't have the mono version so i can't compare.
Listening to more early tracks there is slight distortion on FBI (in the middle eighth) and Man of Mystery. I guess with the Shads schedule of gigs meant they simply didn't have time to check things like recording levels!
