LP version pressed on 180 gram virgin vinyl. Named in honor of John Peel's 1967 late-night program on pirate radio station Radio London, which Peel named after a 13th century Arabic sex manual, the original 3 volumes of Past & Present's The Perfumed Garden (which many aficionados felt set the benchmark for future compilations) were applauded for the quality of both their content and their sound, but these accolades were often undermined by the lack of information about the tracks and the artists who performed them. This hand-numbered limited edition LP series contains a scholarly and informative insert with rare photographs and exhaustive full-color liner notes. This is full-on '60s UK garage rock and psychedelia, and every track's a winner. Great digitally-remastered sound coupled with original artwork and CD liner notes. Artists include: Factory, Eyes, Syn, Nimrod, Smoke, Birds, Shy Limbs, Game, Frame, Mandrake Paddle Steamer, French Revolution, Vamp, Syndicates, Sands, Tintern Abbey, The Craig and Open Mind.
