Notes:

Different release: [r12065003] with 12″ disc in white vinyl and without 7″ single.

High quality audiophile pressing on 200 gram virgin vinyl.

Remastered from the original mono tapes.

The album was intented to follow the original UK running order – which is to say, without A Whiter Shade of Pale or Homburg. Ironically when Mike Hobson (president of Classic Records) played the original mono master tape the first song heard was Homburg with Conquistador relegated to the No.4 spot on side 2.

A Whiter Shade of Pale (original title track of the US running order and the group’s most famous song) has been relocated to a separate pale green two sided 12″ disc (Side C – 33 ⅓ RPM & Side D – 45 RPM) for this version (Mono).

First 1000 copies were issued with 7″ on white vinyl (Stereo). This contains an alternate version of the famous single.
