I heard that the Spanish release has a different mix. Is that true?
angelo.pingerna Sep 21, 2018
What the hell, I have this copy of Saucerful the cover is stereo version (scx 6258) first press and the record inside is mono version (Sx 6358) first press Made in Uk. Black label e blue Capitol logo. Can somebody explain this? The record was under distribuition of Italian EMI.

I found this UK press in a local thrift shop for $0.99 in pretty good condition. Not my cup of tea but a pretty nice issue to own.

In the seventies an eight track tape was available with both Piper at the Gates of Dawn and Saucerful of Secrets on one tape!Iwill say some of the music on this tape was pretty obscure and definitely could be described as a bunch of deranged acid munching burn outs.A favorite of mine is Corporal Clegg with a thunderous bass line in the record,it certainly grabbed My attention.

I own the fifth re issue with the incorrect track listing for Jugband Blues. Any reason why its not on discogs?

no mention of the silver and white columbia label

Working titles for tracks "A Saucerful Of Secrets" and "See-Saw" were "Massed Gadgets Of Hercules" and "The Most Boring Song I've Ever Heard Bar Two" respectively.
