***the other cd includes the original stereo mix of the album on CD for the first time in a decade, with sound that’s been remastered for the first time in 30 years. the album’s original mono mix has been remastered for this set & is making its CD debut. Accompanying the set are liner notes, as well as a selection of rare & previously unseen photographs.*** Having a larger budget allowed the band to spend more time experimenting in the studio. They used an eight-track recorder for the first time, which resulted in some memorable overdubs like Krieger’s double-tracked guitar on “When The Music’s Over.” Surprisingly, the trippy keyboard sound heard on the album’s title track is actually one of the earliest appearances of a Moog synthesizer in a rock song.
