    This is sourced from the Master Tape, via a DAT 4 gen tape.
    I've had this recording for quite awhile but rarely listened
    to it, due to the fact that it runs a bit fast. Well, I have
    finally decided to fix the speed problem. I hope you like the
    results.

    Though the source recording has some minor problems (minor sonic
    bumps and some hiss - more so on Disc 2), this is a superb, clear
    sounding recording and is a definite upgrade to 'Best Of The
    Pepperland Tapes'.

    Remastering notes:

    In determining the best speed change to make, I used the
    Pepperland Tapes as a guide. I found that while a speed change
    of -4.0 brought me in line with the Pepperland Tapes, it seemed
    a bit sluggish. I found -3.8 to be the best sounding.

    I re-indexed things a bit. I broke the Astronomy Domine power
    problems into their own track. While interesting to hear once
    or twice, they are not something you want to repeatedly listen
    to. I also moved Embryo to the end of Disc 1. Since it segues
    smoothly from AHM and has an abrupt cut at the end, it seemed
    more natural to place it at the end of a disc. I also indexed
    the tracks so that the song begins with the track, except for
    Saucerful.
