ASTRAL NAVIGATIONS

UK HOLYGROUND/MAGIC MIXTURE Mono HG-114 (425 only)

(SIGNED WITH OUTER SLEEVE/BOOK AND INSERT)

A really excellent++/NM very clean condition UK official reissue of this monster rare progressive rock/folk-psych album by the bands 'Lightyears Away' and 'Thundermother'.

Let's face it you are highly unlikely to ever find the original 1971 UK HOLYGROUND issue as there were only around 250 ever pressed and i would imagine that only a handful survive today in good condition. This rare official reissue on offer here was pressed in a very limited run of just 425 copies in 1989 by MAGIC MIXTURE records, all were hand signed by Mike Levon & Dave Wood of HOLYGROUND enterprises. The packaging is really superb with no expense spared, there is a excellent delicate black outer paper sleeve which slips over the fully laminated signed front cover, the album comes with a A4 insert and a excellent 12 page book with info and rare pictures and the lyrics to all tracks.

CONDITION


The vinyl looks amazingly clean and glossy and visually grades a brilliant EX++/NEAR MINT condition, there are no surface marks and both sides show only minute signs of very careful play, both sides play superb throughout with clean and clear sound quality, this is as close to new as a used record gets and the winning bidder will definitely not be disappointed

Both labels are in clean and bright as new condition and free of defects.

The fully laminated single sleeve is numbered and hand signed on the back and is in near mint condition, all edges and spine are perfectly square and free of wear, the delicate thin paper black and white outer sleeve is also in perfect condition and looks brand new, the excellent 12 page info/picture/lyric book is again in as new defect free condition.

The A4 HOLYGROUND insert is in mint condition.

This is just a immaculate condition very rare official Uk reissue of a impossible to find Prog/Psych album. this LP was sold mail order only on a first come first served basis and was never commercially available to buy in the shops, so this brilliant packaged issue is almost as hard to find as the original Holyground pressing as all 425 copies were bought at the time of release by private collectors and only a tiny amount have ever been offered for sale since.
