Nice. I didn't know the story about the woman on the front cover, from wiki:

The Black Sabbath album cover features a depiction of Mapledurham Watermill, situated on the River Thames in Oxfordshire, England. Standing in front of the watermill is a figure dressed in black.[17] The name of the woman pictured on the front cover is forgotten, though guitarist Iommi says that she once showed up backstage at a Black Sabbath show and introduced herself

Nice. picks up where he left with the killer songs he wrote with The Byrds. Great playing and sound quality on this record, particularly like Chris Etheridge's bass.

You are correct, of course. The UK & US versions of "Out of Our Heads" have different track listings and I like the US one better. The UK one seems to have more covers.

Thot "Nanker Phelge" was novel. Stones covering Sonny Bono ??

One of the first of the band’s albums to be issued in Britain in ‘full frequency stereo sound’.
There are six different tracks to the US version, and although there are three Jagger/Richards songs there’s only one group written song, meaning this, in marked contrast to the US version of the album, has a preponderance of covers on it. There is not a hit single on the album, which probably accounts for it failing to become the band’s third number one in succession on the UK album charts, although it was not unusual at this time for artists to release albums without including their singles.

I've got Pandora playing ....sounds pretty good thru the 24/192 DAC. Anyway, Inna-a-godda-da-vida just finished up. Yeah, many of us know every note, but this was the LIVE version...the middle drum solos (2 drums ?) is MUCH better than the album cut. Really outstanding

Live version

A live version reaching over 19 minutes long was released as part of their 1969 live album, simply titled Live. This version lengthens the drum solo by roughly four minutes and the organ solo by about one minute. It also omits the bass and drum solo jam (heard from 13:04–15:19 on the studio recording).
