Originally released in November 1971, 'Journey to the Centre of the Eye' was the first release by the band and featured a continuous piece of music divided into 13 tracks. This impressive conceptual science fiction-inspired work, which was interpreted as a commentary on the nuclear arms race, was the band's first album release and originally appeared in Germany, the country where the British band were formed and were based, and where they enjoyed commercial success and built Nektar's loyal following. The 2024 remix by Ben Wiseman was greeted with acclaim by fans and critics, creating a new clarity over the music. It was hailed as the definitive presentation of Nektar's debut masterwork. This vinyl edition has been cut at AIR Studios in London and retains the original gatefold artwork.
