«Canterbury Tales» from 1976 contains tracks by the progressive rock band from 1970 to 1974. The album gives a good overview of the facets of the band: from epic orchestration (The Love in Your Eye) to daring rock (Headloss) to to pop sounds (Golf Girl).
The album appears on the mini LP cover, a reproduction of the vinyl version released in Japan.
UHQCD stands for Ultimate High Quality Compact Disc and is a joint development of the Japanese CD replication company Memory-Tech and the Audio Quality CD Company from Hong Kong. Unlike conventional CDs, UHQCDs are not pressed from polycarbonate, but rather cast from a photopolymer and cured with UV light. Another layer of high-purity polycarbonate is applied to protect the softer photopolymer from scratching. The combination results in a significantly reduced reflection of the laser light inside the CD and an unequaled precise edge transition between pits and lands of the CD. UHQCDs are 100% compatible with normal CD players. Musically, the result is a sound that is strongly reminiscent of analog master tapes.
