  1. Oora is the fifth album by psychedelic rock group, the Edgar Broughton Band, first released in 1973.

    It was the Broughtons' last album for Harvest Records.

    The original vinyl album came in an elaborate package, with a conventional gatefold album jacket enclosed in a transparent vinyl sleeve printed with the group's name and band pictures.

    The 2004 CD reissue featured one additional track.

  2. German edition:

    On rear sleeve: "EMI Electrola GMBH All rights reserved / Printed in Germany by 4P NICOLAUS GMBH, Kรถln". - On label: "MADE IN GERMANY".

    Cover is taken over from the inside of the fold-out UK release, credits on rear are taken from the dustbag (credits & lyrics) of that release.

    So some credits do not make much sense, because they refer to the UK release.

    E.g "Photography [Centre Fold]: Hipgnosis" in this case is the photography on sleeve (front/back); "other photographys" are not taken over from UK release; the Artwork and Design of Barney Bubbles (= Colin Fulcher; who made some famous covers for Hawkwind, Gracious!, The Damned and others) and Chris Smith (front illustrations of the UK release fold out cover, plastic bag) can not be seen on this release.

    Track B3 remains uncredited (as on UK release) on the cover. Duration of A1a/A1b: 6:09; B1a/B1b: 7:51; B2a/B2b/B2c/B2d: 10:24.
