"Music On Vinyl's well-received series of Golden Earring remastered and expanded editions continue with On The Double. The Red Bullet archive was turned inside out again by Wouter Bessels and he found the original first-generation quarter inch master tapes of this classic 1969 album. These particular tapes have never been used for any release before, as in the analogue days of mixing and mastering it was customary to run off a set of equalized tape copies -- with compression and sometimes reverb added -- for release on vinyl and cassette. The first-generation tapes sound dynamic and have a wonderful late ;60s brilliance. You'll probably have never heard the lush orchestral arrangement of 'Just A Little Bit Of Peace In My Heart' so dynamic and fresh before. These tapes were hi-res digitally transferred and carefully remastered by Wouter Bessels. Also, genuine stereo mixes of both 'Dong-Dong-Di-Ki-Di-Gi-Dong' and its B-side 'Wake Up-Breakfast!' were found. As the On The Double album was mixed in glorious stereo, MOV has included these never-before released stereo mixes (instead of the original 1968 mono mixes), alongside the original stereo mixes of 'Where Would I Be'/'It's Alright, But I Admit It Could Be Better', the single that came out after On The Double. All in all, this expanded release of On The Double contains everything released by Golden Earrings between the albums Miracle Mirror and Eight Miles High and, as it features all original stereo mixes, fills another important hole in the reissue program of the band. On The Double (remastered and expanded) is now available as an individually numbered edition of 1000 copies on crystal clear vinyl. It contains an insert, printed inner sleeves with liner notes by acclaimed Golden Earring biographer and archivist Jeroen Ras and additional remastering notes and comes in a gatefold sleeve."
