Description

This is a lovely UK original, first pressing of the rare 'Ark 2' LP by Flaming Youth (containing a youthful Phil Collins, before he joined Genesis)

Fontana STL 5533 from 1969

Intricate and fragile fold out 'trifold' sleeve with plastic 'stained glass window' effect to front. These sleeves (when you see this LP at all...) are usually ruined. This one is in fantastic excellent plus condition. - Perfect except for a small amount of storage wear and some very minor scuffing. The extremely fragile transparent sleeve is in lovely condition with no marks or scratches at all. The sleeve surrounding it has a few minor creases; one from the original manufacture, and two which have happened subsequently. There are no rips, tears, splits, sticker marks, writing or ringwear. The wide spine is perfect.

You won't find a better copy than this...

Original black and silver Fontana labels - Perfect except for a few moderate spindle marks.

The record itself is in lovely near mint condition. Perfect except for a few light surface marks. You won't find a better copy.

This also comes with some mint original sheet music for the song (issued as a single, and sold about ten copies...) 'From Now On'. Published at the time of the LP's original release, this is an extremely rare item in itself. It seemed a shame to separate this little booklet from the LP, so I'm offering them together.

A fantastic piece of prog psych pre-history for all serious Genesis collectors.
