Release notes

All tracks on this album were originally recorded for Swan Records USA and licensed from Cream Records, Manchester, England.
℗ 1963 Swan Records

When asking ACE Records (to which Chiswick belongs) in July 2016, how long the Chiswick label was used for this compilation they said that “It was on Chiswick only between April and September ‘78!”
On what appears to be the same release the Shadow on Chiswick in the header is pale blue not orange!

Runouts are etched, except “CH-6.A/B.2” stamped.
