"In 1967 multi-track recording was essentially in its infancy, with 8-track tape recorders still some months away from arriving in Britain. In common with the techniques adopted by The Beatles on their [i]Sergeant Pepper[/i] album, [i]Days Of Future Passed[/i] was recorded by utilizing two four-track tape machines. Prior to orchestral overdubs being undertaken, the initial four-track tape was mixed down and then transferred to another four-track tape to allow further overdubs to take place. These recordings are initial reductions used as part of the process and serve as a fascinating insight into the ingenuity employed during the creative process." Comes in clear Jewel Case with 20 page booklet.
