Thanks for the break down, sounds an interesting listen. Deffo one of my top 20 albums too, played it a few hundred times at least. It's innocent other worldliness has saw me through some tough times I have to say. I'm curious enough to have a look over on discogs to see if there are any going at a reasonable cost.

I've got a coupla mono mix CD's Pink Floyd 1st album, coupla Beatles and some Kinks reissue stuff that all came as twofers. Stereo and Mono together. Only one I've played through is the Floyd mono and it just seemed like a pseudo stereo affair, with various instruments hard panned either left or right. If I hard panned left or right, half the Mix was lost.

Guess You'd have to find an old mono Dansette style record player with mono switch needle to get the full period effect :)

It is fairly reasonable to get on Discogs at the mo. All first 5 ISB albums were released in mono at the time. Only heard The Hangman's to date. As per Floyd's Piper in mono, there was a re-issue last year on vinyl and it sounds amazing - noticeably different - sometimes prefer the mono mix - though Interstellar Overdrive sounds strange without the mad panning ....
