"Alchemy" remastered edition updated.


First of all, the 2CDs-disc set will be out on March 29th, 2019 with the usual pre-order at the Esoteric Recordings and Cherry Red Records' Websites (go HERE). Maybe a special edition also in vinyl could be released!
About the track-list, "due to issues with the BBC", the updated tracks will be these:


CD One
 
“Alchemy”
*
Mosaic
Ghetto Raga
Druid One
Stone Circle
Egyptian Book of the Dead
Area Three
Dragon Lines

(Released as Harvest SHVL 756 in July 1969)

Bonus tracks
**
Hyde Park Raga
Druid One
(BBC Radio One “Top Gear” session – 27th July 1969)

*= remastered from original EMI masters. 
**= actually the tracks are available among TEB fans.


CD Two

The Sea
Druid
Hyde Park Raga

*= same tracks published in "Necromancers of the Drifting West" by Gonzo Multimedia in 2015.
**= same track as "Raga in D", just in studio master quality.
 

For writing the CD booklet I had the opportunity to listen to the four unrealised tracks before, and, well, I have to admit they was a great surprise for me!
