The allegedly original labels (from an unauthorized vinyl replica-edition of " Necrophilia")

Two of the songs on the acetates were dropped from the track listing on the sleeve, "Think" and "Good Times".

"Aftermath" in the acetate is the 1964 instrumental "And Mr Spector And Mr. Pitney Came Too". (?)

post scriptum

"Aftermath" was the title given to "And Mr Spector And Mr. Pitney Came Too" by Andrew Oldham or by ABKCO in the BMI files.

(according to Felix Aeppli)

"On Friday 15th September (1967) acetates of possible masters were cut for each of the band.

The tracks were (with final titles in brackets): "Aftermath" (2000 Light Years From Home), "God Bless You" (Sing This All Together), "After Five" (Citadel), "Pieces", "Flowers" (She´s A Rainbow), "Flowers In Your Hair" (Gomper), "No Title", "Dream Pipe", "Flying High" (The Lantern), "Bill´s Tune" (In Another Land) and "Surprise Me".
