About time! Considerably superior. I first came across this 1969 mix a wee while back and was totally blown away. Never played the 1971 one since then. Great to be available on CD at last. I don't know how the new coloured vinyl will sound though - they did re-issue the 1969 mix on vinyl few years back and it apparently sounds dreadful with over the top noise reduction. Might hold out and see if I can find an affordable decent pre-1971 press for that, but will do a bit of research ... Without a doubt the mix to have!


The CD sounds great - (not listened to the live tracks yet) and I have to say, the 1969 version compared to the 71 remix is up there in similar terms to the mono vs stereo of Piper at The Gates of Dawn for me. This is when psychedelia is at its best; loose, freely formed (different to free-form), unbalanced and disorientating. Brilliant - an album I'd always been underwhelmed with is now on heavy rotation - I like that!
