Description

Rarely offered Aslan-style 1972 UK private label folk album with female vocals, great version of the Strawbs song 'Shake Hands' and some very strong original material.  Laminated sleeve and disc are both in nice Ex condition, the label on Side Two has a publishing stamp to denote that the pressing was too small to attract mechanical royalty payments.  The entire album can be heard via the following link:

Here's an independent review of the album from the Ken Scott music guide book The Archivist: "Adorable British folk LP with strumming 12-string acoustic sound and delicate male/female harmonies. Very simple, pure, understated approach with just guitars, bass, tambourine, and plenty of excitement and charm. Exordium has written a good deal of their own material - ‘Revolution Man’, ‘Mary Dry Those Crying Eyes’, ‘Subway’, ‘People All Around’, several others. The songs included that are remakes (‘Put Your Hand In The Hand’, ‘Jesus Met The Woman’, ‘Glory Glory’) sound refreshing in their distinctively British interpretation. They even put a jamming folk twist on Gershwin’s ‘Summertime’. Great band name. Great title. Great black and white cover photo of an apple core. A great album!"
