FULL CONTENTS

  • A strong thirteen inch square hard box, featuring a unique 3D lenticular cover image of the iconic Zebra man artwork which was used on a poster advertising the band’s performance at the Avalon Ballroom.
  • A 2-LP gatefold sleeve edition of The Psychedelic Sounds Of, remastered from a safety master derived from the original tape source. Album one is the mono edition; album two, a remastered version of the original stereo mix and thus different to the version on Sign Of The Three Eyed Men. This, as for Easter Everywhere and Bull Of The Woods, is the first vinyl reissue from tape sources of the stereo editions for over three decades. Album two is the first ever vinyl pressing of the album in the band’s intended running order.
  • A 2-LP gatefold sleeve edition of Easter Everywhere, mastered from the original tape source. Album one is the mono edition; album two, a remastered version of the original stereo mix. This is the first official mono reissue of the album since 1967.
  • A 2-LP gatefold sleeve edition of Bull Of The Woods / A Love that’s Sound. This is the first release on vinyl for the latter and it contains a recently discovered and never-heard before version of 'Some Day My Love', the song originally scheduled as the band’s 6th single.
  • The first ever vinyl release of the band’s unreleased first album Headstone.
  • The first official vinyl release of Live in California - The Avalon Recordings.
  • The Sumet Sounds Masters EP, a six track 10-inch EP of Bob Sullivan’s original stereo ‘desk mixes’ of 5 tracks from The Psychedelic Sounds Of recordings plus the highly desirable early version of the band’s second single 'Reverberation' from an acetate, only previously available on the long sold out Sign Of The Three Eyed Men CD box set . This disc will only be available in this package.
