But Owen, you're missing their best, their first, Fresh Cream. The mono version of course, the stereo has some very strange positioning of the instruments.

Yes indeed, I started collecting a few only relatively recently, having owned only Best Of since days of yore.

You need the mono for this one Owen. Early stereo and I've always found the instrument placement leaves the middle ground a bit hollow.
My stereo stand alone copy is an early 70s reissue. If you are a fan the recent box set is well worth the money
