50th Anniversary Half-Speed Mastering limited edition reissue.
Comes with a Dark Green 'Obi' strip, a plain Yellow Inner sleeve and an (A5-size) 'Half-speed Mastering' Certificate.
Originally released in December 1971.
This edition was cut by Miles Showell at half speed using high resolution transfers of the original master tapes at Abbey Road Studios, 23rd July 2021. This half-speed master closely references the 2018 remaster by Alex Wharton and Steve Orchard. It was made as a vinyl specific transfer in high resolution and without digital peak limiting for the best possible reproduction.
