... or as FZ put it (Rolling Stone, 1968): "''It's all one album. All the material on the albums is organically related,  and if I had all the master tapes and I could take a razor blade and cut them apart and put it together again in a different order, it would still make one piece of music you can listen to. Then, I could take that razor blade and cut it apart and reassemble it a different way and it would still make sense. I could do this 20 ways. The material is definitely related.''"
