About

From Wikipedia:

Tadpoles is the third album by the Bonzo Dog Band. It is largely a compilation of their work from the television show Do Not Adjust Your Set, on which they were the house band. The US version of the album had a track list slightly different from that of the UK version: the US version removed “I’m the Urban Spaceman” and added “Readymades” the B-side of their follow-up single “Mr. Apollo”.
The UK version was reissued on vinyl by Sunset Records in the early 1970s, re-titled “I’m the Urban Spaceman”.
In 2007 the album was reissued on CD with its original title and artwork, by EMI with five bonus tracks.
