Album notes

Discogs page for these notes (opens in a new tab)

Initial (manufactured by B&C) copies of the album featured the shorter version of "Lost" (around 10:30) that fades out during the "I love you" section. Later pressings faded out during the cacophonous crashing chords that followed, making the track a little over 11 minutes.
Recorded at Trident Studios between Spring 1969 - Autumn 1970.
