 They're the 1968 lushly orchestrated (and, imo, vastly inferior) re-makes. You probably know why these were substituted - because Peter Eden and Geoff Stephens (Eden-Stephens) and Iver Recordings were sub-franchised to Pye in '65. By the time this album was due for release, Pye only had the right to release Most-era material onwards. Hence the re-recordings.

What was bad was the lack of a sticker or anything else to indicate that CTW and C weren't the original cuts. Many purchasers were confounded to hear songs sounding nothing like the versions they'd grown up with and probably bought on singles four years before! Nowadays, the record company would turn this into a virtue, boldly proclaiming "With two new, alternative recordings of Catch The Wind and Colours!" or somesuch.

 Since the track listing is the same as the 1968 US Epic Lp (though Season of the Witch jumped sides!)......are Colours and Catch The Wind the "Pye" versions or the re-recorded "Epic" versions from 1968?....John
