A perfect "final statement" on one of the greatest albums of all time
While perhaps not as well known as some of the other "psychedelic" albums of 1967 (most notably, the Beatles' Sgt. Pepper), this album remains the most concise, focused, and beautiful albums of all time: arguably "the" psychedelic album of all time. All of this is made even more impressive by the fact that it was Pink Floyd's first album, and even more tragic considering the infamous downfall of front man Syd Barrett after it came out.
This version of the album comes with a stereo mix of the album (fairly identical to the prior CD release from 1994) and a mono mix, which showcases some subtle, but major, differences in sound. The bonus disc contains some of the bands early singles and b-sides ("Arnold Layne, "Candy and a Currant Bun," "Apples and Oranges," and "Paintbox"), an alternate version of "Matilda Mother," and two different versions of the band's famous jam "Interstellar Overdrive." The final track on the bonus disc, "Interstellar Overdrive (Take 6)" offers an extremely different take on the song that I have actually grown to prefer to the one that made the album proper.
In addition, this all comes with a book containing early band notes and artwork. A great product for anyone who loves Pink Floyd.
