ANDWELLAS DREAM

" LOVE AND POETRY "

on the CBS 'REFLECTION' RECORDS cat# S 63673 vintage ORIGINAL
A-1/B-1 Matrixes FIRST ISSUE COPY!!!

RARE ORIGINAL UK Progressive Psych Rock GEM.

One of the most sought-after, rare, and - most importantly, BEST albums of the era!
Not a bad track throughout, exquisitely written and recorded, a SUPERB LP that introduced an excellent band - but sold almost zero. This crosses over true Acid Folk, English sensibility, delicate Progressive music that was sophisticated and accessible. Forget the drudgery of The Open Mind's LP, which didn't match the incredibly good 45 track that wasn't on it - and really don't bother with Rainbow Ffolly or July or Dr. Z's 'Three Parts To My Soul' - rare they may be, but in my opinion also over-rated. Here's the real deal. The cover? Hmm, not indicative of the music I don't think. This is not warped mind-bending weirdness, it's quality songwriting and thoughtful lyrics underpinned by excellent musicianship and nicely produced too.
Indispensable music - that I can only highly recommend.
(take a listen on youtube too)
Andwella's Dream recorded several albums after this brilliant debut, but to most listeners this was the best!

The vinyl is VG+, decent shine but a few fine needle-trails and light scuff.
Sounds well, slight crackle only, no obtrusive noises and no skips.
A very decent player.
The Lables grade VG++ condition, clean, bright and some signs of play of course.
Super fully-laminated art sleeve cover is lovely, solid and bright - title seam-wear and handling wear, a corner bend. All in all I grade this VG+

A nice FIRST PRESSING AND RELEASE copy of this great album!

Don't miss this rare copy of a VERY scarce LP!
