Barry Gray recorded the original
music for UFO in full stereo. These
multi-track master tapes are the
source for this CD-they've just been
superbly cleaned-up[digitally
re-mastered] and sound fantastic.
The music was mixed down for mono
for television broadcast.
Unfortunately the original stereo
master tapes for THE LONG SLEEP no
longer exist, so we have to make do
with the mixed down mono recordings.
How anyone can prefer the mixed down
mono to the original stereo is
beyond me, but,then, taste is a
notorious matter!-- In
