With Battle Stereo, London Phase 4 created an epic worthy of David Lean. Essentially, the LP sounds like a great stereo soundtrack to a motion picture about war. The album starts with Paul Revere's ride, with Paul shouting 'To arms! To arms! The British are coming!' while he gallops from left speaker to right speaker. The battle commences with lots of gun and canon fire while 'March of the Grenadiers' dukes it out with 'Yankee Doodle' from left and right speakers, respectively. The rest of the album proceeds along the same lines, mixing sound effects, speeches and melodramatic music. In 'The Battle of Gettysburg' we here a fiery speech by Jefferson Davis, more gun and canon fire, and President Lincoln delivering the Gettysburg Address. Other tracks include 'Napoleon's Retreat,' 'The Charge of the Light Brigade,' and 'The Battle of Britain' (with speeches by Hitler and Churchill).

'No other album production in London Record's Phase 4 stereo catalog has ever taken so heavy a toll of time, money, effort and talent...' claim the liner notes. The album took a year to produce, and required assistance from London's corp of engineers to funnel all ten tape tracks down to the final two. The album's credits (most Phase 4 albums have few or no credits): Producer - Tony D'Amato; Musical Director - Bob Sharples; Engineer - Arthur Lilley; Editing - Arthur Bannister; Gunfire Effects - British Grenadier Guards; Cavalry Effects - Her Majesty's Horse Guards; Recording Hall - Town Hall, Walthamstow, England.
