Tracklisting & More Information

An interesting and essential blend of progressive Jazz Rock that managed to avoid the symphonic sounds of their contemporaries. this is the first of just two album releases by the band, both of which are now quite rightly very collectable indeed.

Condition
The sleeve shows a degree of shelfwear & edge scuffing & while far from being the worst we've ever seen, it's not the best either. Not being laminated, this sleeve was prone to all sorts of wear, and this one is typical.
That being said, nothing is to excess and the sleeve retains its 'vintage' feel and, although far from perfect, it remains very acceptable.

The massive redemption for this copy is that the vinyl remains in spectacular condition with just the one groove either side that it was born with. There are no obvious surface scuffs of any kind evident and very little sign of play at all. I doubt very much that you could find better vinyl than this.

A nice copy of one of the most sought after 'swirl' releases with the usual condition sleeve but far above average vinyl.
