[edit] Stereo vs. mono mix

I've just downloaded the newly remastered mono mix of this album (*) from iTunes and bravely listened to the whole thing. There are subtle differences between it and what I was already familiar with on nearly every track (rather like "Sgt. Pepper's ...") but this is the only track which was transformed. In the first minute it's clear what they meant about the entire ensemble being double-tracked; I couldn't place the tempo with certainty until about 1:15 in. The whole thing seems to sound even more spaced-out; it would appear eventually to switch to single-tracked ensemble somewhere around the 8-minute mark (i.e. at the climax of the song). I think the article ought to mention this.

(*) Side note: I went for the mono version because the stereo mix of this song just sounds sickening on headphones (from about 8:30 to the end - that's the section featured in the Ogg Vorbis sample). Should the article mention that effect in the stereo mix too? --The guy with the axe - aaaaaaargh!!! 19:28, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

I listened to the mono version, and i found it far better at the begining and the ending. We can mention, yes, 2 editors agree, and if none oppose we can do, but we must be very careful with the wording, because the danger of original research is "right behind (after) the corner".Doktor Who 00:11, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] French edit

The "French edit" from the 40th anniversary of the album. What is the name of the EP it's taken from? --Deba Tihs ´n´ Mad Dog 15:36, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Interstellar Overdrive.ogg

Image:Interstellar Overdrive.ogg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
