graded VG/VG+ for a strict Record Collector magazine grading system


label: This is the very first pressing with rainbow rimmed label and this copy it's in absolutelly great shape without any apreciable wear also around the spindle hole there are not marks.
cover: the cover it's totally enjoyable but denote some minimal wear that in a strict grade mean something. The black background with the beautiful multicoloured psychedelic insert suffer normally of an heavy wear but this copy have just a minimum of general wear a bit more concentrated around the ring trace but there's not the typical ring wear as you can see from the photos. TheSpine doe have some wear altough the name it's ahite fully readable but the others writings in the lower part are no so clearly readables. The inside of cover it's a lot better and there's no writings or anything else. I call it VG in a very conservative grade, at least I hope so but you may ask more.
vinyl:The vinyl playing it's absolutelly great but there's 2/3 light marks for each side. I sincerelly did not have understud ant defect during the plays if not maybe isolates pops but nothing that may interfere minimally with the sound.  Absolutelly a great playin' but because these light marks I'll give a visual VG+ grade.
review: Really a beautiful record to my ear and I think very undervalued on the collecting market also because it's really hard to find a decent copy and this is a decent copy...and music it's really innovative because the musical influences are psychedelic but not instictives. There are very intelligent sax sudden solos inside a melodic acid folk structure with beautiful female vocal of Nancy Jeffries that it's vocally twain of Sandy Denny and I think that this mean something in the quality of the album. A less demented Incredible String Band with female vocal that meet a crazy saxophonist with jazzy tendencies...."Special Rider Blues" withold blues intros as listened from an old vinyl evolving in a shining folk rock blues with sax soloseverywhere, electric guitar solos too and suddenly running rithmics and sound ...have you heard this many times in the 1968? A lot of good intentions and excellents results for the period as it's difficult to find elsewhere also for an expert listener. Don't miss! SORRY for the reserve price but this is really the minimum I can accept for a so rare item and this is a correct auction very different the many "pushed up" auctions I see all around! Please open your eyes!
