Die wichtigen Veröffentlichungen Joe Meeks auf dem Pye-Label. Die Tracksequenz ist zwar nicht ganz einleuchtend, aber das "Floating" funktioniert. Etliche der Aufnahmen sind hörbar vom Originalvinyl überspielt worden; auf klangliche Restaurierung hat man verzichtet. Der Klang ist daher sehr dicht am alten Single-Sound, und das passt gut.

Track 9 auf Disc 2 wird im Booklet falsch als Husky Team angegeben.

Joe Meek's important releases on the Pye label. The track sequence is not quite clear, but the floating works well. Several of the reordings are audibly rerecorded from the original vinyls; there's no sound restauration used. So the sound is close to the old singles, and it fits.

In the booklet, track 9 on disc 2 is wrongly listed as Husky Team.
