Reissued to celebrate the 50th anniversary as a limited edition half-speed mastered vinyl pressing via UMe.
Comes in a Gatefold sleeve with a Yellow 'Obi' strip and an (A5-size) 'Half-speed Mastering' Certificate.
Originally released in May 1971.
This edition was cut by Miles Showell at half speed using original 1971 master tapes at Abbey Road Studios, 9th December 2020.
This half-speed master closely references the 2011 remaster by Guy Massey, Steve Rooke and Simon Gibson.
It was made as a vinyl specific transfer in high resolution and without digital peak limiting for the best possible reproduction.
