Ted Heath-POW! (1966) [Complete LP]
One Of Our Deleted Albums Series - London Phase 4 Stereo
Ted Heath released this album in 1966 on the London Phase 4 Stereo label, catalogue number SP 44079.
London's Phase 4 Stereo series were excellent technical recordings. As one example of their technical quality, they used 20 channel mixers at a time when the industry standard was 4 to 8 channels.
Unfortunately, the London Phase 4 Stereo recordings are deleted and out of print. But that makes them collectable so when I come across a second hand copy in good condition I buy it. I found this one recently in a used record store.
It is a late 1960s or early 1970s Canadian pressing of the original London Phase 4 Stereo vinyl LP.

1. Baubles, Bangles And Beads 0:00
