    Not a very good sounding pressing, at all. Definitely sourced from a poorly done needledrop, with the turntable hum audible, and with the treble turned up to the point of harsh sibilance, whilst cutting down the bass severely. Also, in spite of this one claiming to be stereo, it's actually completely mono. Not as in they needledropped a UK mono press, they either copied a stereo pressing, using a mono recorder, or copied with a stereo recorder, only to fold it to mono. Also, ending of Hey Joe, the bit with the studio chatter and footsteps is missing! Stay away from these, and get an actual 1968 Tetragrammaton pressing.

      Is it a bootleg? Someone told me it was. Its sounds good maybe eq lack on bass. Cover is cheaply made like those early eighties covers. Really like those songs on this, the punchy and The adress, the Joe South cover Hush, showing the Rod Evans vocal talent and the Blackmore trippy riffs.
      One more rainy day, it is Jon Lord influence. Really like.the melody, the Beatles style backing vocal, and the chorus clean guitar.
      Next, a Cream cover, Blackmore can compete Clapton easily.
