I think there's also a DTS version of Meddle out there.

where?! where!?
I find it sad that a lot of sixties groups are ashamed of their work-from 1969-1974 alot of cool underground "progressive" came out-much of it from England that you rarely heard on FM here. When they got BIG, THEN you heard them hereie: Floyd, Genisis, etc. I had to listen to Canadian (CKLG)radio to hear some of the stuff passed by here.
Im thinking of a couple groups-Pink Floyd, and an acid folk group called THE TREES, that were big in the UK but never got here, announcing that their work during that time was "pretentious" of "utter shyte"-Gilmour on AHM.
To me that shows lack of character-if the music made was from your true creative center rather than to pander to AM radio-or the bean counters-then you should be proud of the brief time where obscure bands, labels and off-beat, experimental music reigned and where allowed to florish.
And some of these LPs from the UK are worth BIG money today-becasue of their obscurity
