- LP facsimile of the original sleeve & artwork faithfully reproduced in reverse board finish - no bar code etc.- 4-side insert featuring rare band photos closest to the time of recording & recording sessions info- New 96KHZ-24bit transfer from earliest source- Facsimile MONO edition - Half Speed lacquers cut at AIR Studios by Barry Grint- This edition supersedes all previous editions - including the collector's holy-grail: the original mono pressing, which has recently fetched over $4,500+.1966 debut album by Texan pioneers of psychedelia. Presenting the HIT singles 'You're Gonna Miss Me' and 'Reverberation'"This ground-breaking album not only defined psychedelic rock but informed punk a decade later, influencing everyone from Led Zeppelin to The Cramps. Originally issued in November 1966, this album has not only continued to gain importance but also world-wide recognition as the first bona fide psychedelic rock album.This is a facsimile edition of the original mono mix, a faithful reproduction of what was pressed in 1966. It represents the authentic sound and TRANSFORMATIVE POWER of The Psychedelic Sounds of The 13th Floor Elevators.The mono pressing is highly prized for it's uncompromising solid-sounding mix. Meticulous attention to detail has gone into this reissue and the digitisation to make sure every detailed nuance was preserved. A 96KHZ-24bit pass, using a valve signal at minus ten decibels (to eliminate turntable rumble), was conducted several times in order to gauge the best results. No attempt was made to rebalance or EQ. A half speed master was then cut at AIR Mastering and a test pressing was then dubbed using the same process and the dynamic range compared against the original pressing. The result was a better sound pressing than the original!
