On 15-Jul-10 at 03:34:21 BST, seller added the following information:

Important differences between the mono and stereo mixes: The mono edition of the album offers different mixes on songs such as "Let There Be More Light," with the keyboard and guitar embellishments far more prominent than they are in the standard stereo edition. "Corporal Clegg," it must be conceded, may well work better in the stereo version, as the mono master pushes the guitars too far into the background. "Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun" is also very different from the standard stereo master -- for starters, it's possible to make out the lyrics a lot more easily, and the shimmering percussion and keyboard effects are further forward in the mix. The biggest variation of all is evident in "A Saucerful of Secrets," which has a completely different set of musical effects throughout its length, but most noticeably in the first section.
