TRACKLISTING AND EXTRA INFORMATION
Background & Condition

This remarkable album is in astonishing condition and is a one previous owner copy.
The album was released on August 5, 1967 in mono and one month later it was released in stereo. The album’s name comes from the title of the seventh chapter of Kenneth Grahame’s ‘The Wind in the Willows’!

There are significant differences between the stereo & mono mixes.

Subtle changes in effects abound, moment to moment gradations that can alter the flow of an entire track. For example, Syd Barretts whoops and shouts on ‘Take Up Thy Stethoscope And Walk’. The coda of ‘Flaming’ is longer than on the mono version, as is ‘The Gnome’. ‘Interstellar Overdrive’ is without the bongo fadeout of the mono mix and there are seriously different parts
in ‘Pow R Toch H’.

The Sleeve

The Ernest J. Day & Co. sleeve is dated 6709, with the second variant ‘File Under POPULAR: Pop Groups’ text on the top flipback. Complete with the advert inner, this is a beautiful one previous owner copy. The sleeve has with bright clear laminate with a few spots of paper loss on the front, with secure flipbacks, incredible off white back panel, a glorious looking spine, & just a spot of mild age yellowing creeping in to a few corners.

We are grading this example Very Good.

The Label

The labels are the desirable blue & black variety, with ‘Sold In UK’ & ‘Gramophone Co’ label text, & the KT tax code on side 1. The labels are unblemished with not a trace of spindle wear indicating hardly any play in its life. The matrix numbers read :

YAX 3419-1 On Side One
YAX 3420-1 On Side Two

Vinyl

The vinyl remains an Excellent, beautiful & clean example. There are a few mild cosmetic surface scuffs but only light signs of play.

A really very pleasing example of this British Psych landmark LP.
