From the source:

"Released originally as Cher (Kapp KS-3649), featuring a light grey
cover with strands of hair over the face of the chanteuse, this LP was
re-released (as Kapp KS-5549) with the title Gypsys, Tramps & Thieves in
bold white letters with song titles "The Way of Love," "Fire and Rain,"
and "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother" above the cropped cover photo. The
original has the word "Cher" in black fading into the grey; the re-
release has her name in bold white."

Except that's an invalid answer, since the album only reached #16 on
the Billboard charts, per allmusic.com.
