Illiterate Text Editing but Great Sound

"Whomever it was that proofread the titles on this legendary LP, screwed it up big time with not one, but TWO SPELLING ERRORS on the titles, the FIRST and LAST songs are both misspelled. Too bad for a great sounding and long overdue release. The rest of the artwork is intact, especially the front cover. Unfortunately, the REAR album cover was deleted, thus the correct spellings of the titles are gone and all you have to go by is the typist's rendition. Correct title for Track 1 is, "I Love Her And She Loves My" not "...She Loves Me." Last track's title is MISSING the first word, "1968:" which belongs BEFORE the rest of the title, "John Flip Lockup," thus: "1968: John Flip Lockup" is NOT written. Besides the two major song's spelling errors, the CD is otherwise flawless and pristine sounding. I'm sure they used the original session tapes to produce this, though no credits are given as to the origin of the material. You cannot hear any pops, clicks, or ticks, so I'm fairly certain this is NOT a vinyl album transfer as many '60's re-releases are. This is an absolute must for anyone interested in obscure but GREAT '60's psychedelic rock. Thanks for releasing it, people, but you should fire the person who took it upon themselves to "fix" the spelling of the titles without so much as even listening to the album."
