Answer
  I am showing two release numbers, both in 1966.  One is Mono LL476  ,  the other Stereo PS-476.
  It does not make sense to me that there is only one stereo release showing,  certainly the Rolling Stones re- released the LP either on London or later on their own label.  
   I wish I could give you more info, but I don't own the album to look at and see what mine looks like.  
I suggest just keep doing ebay searches for it.   
 I doubt it would be a bootleg,   I don't think it is all that collectable.   I have an old O'Sullivan Woodside blue book that is the 1982 edition.  In 1982 prices on 60s albums were pretty high, and this book only rates it mint at 15 bucks.  Hardly worth a bootleggers trouble.  
  Bootlegging didn't get really hot until the early 70s.  It could be someone in the sixties had bootlegged it and tried to market it as an official release, but I think that is unlikely.  If it was bootlegged in the 60s it would probably be of very poor and easily identifiable quality.

I can answer general questions about rock era bands, record labels they were on, and names of songs. Often I can tell the name of the record company that released a song, as well as the name of the song, and the year of release based on some of the lyrics. I grew up during the rock era and I am a musician myself, and always read the album and 45 info for production credits as well as lineups. One of the chat rooms I go to is quite amused at my ability to name a song along with it`s year of release and record label. I was also a record collector for years.
