Description
You are bidding on a completely authentic first press of the self-titled LP by Gandalf. It was a promotional copy and has been stamped with the word 'FREE' in the upper right corner. Extremely rare and highly collectible! Regularly sells for $200+. Be wary of fakes--this is the real deal.
What Mojo had to say about this masterpiece:
"...think Odessey And Oracle era Zombies teamed with Phil Spector. The majority of the sole Gandalf LP comprises covers - their transcendental takes on The Mojo Men's 'Me About You' and the standard 'Golden Earrings,' with Sando's vocals fed through a Binson Echorec tape echo unit - all lysergic-fueled metaphysical epics of mesmerizing beauty. 'Hang On To A Dream' even rivals Hardin's original. The few tracks that Sando does pen are equally regnant, the spooky 'I Watch The Moon' is a favourite." (Lois Wilson for Mojo)
Track List:
(Side One)
1. Golden Earrings
2. Hang On to a Dream
3. Never Too Far
4. Scarlet Ribbons
5. You Upset the Grace of Living
(Side Two)
6. Can You Travel in the Dark Alone
7. Nature Boy
8. Tiffany Rings

10. I Watch the Moon
Except for a few smudges/fingerprints, vinyl is mint. The cover is very clean; there is light ring-wear and barely any wear around the edges. You will be very satisfied with the condition of this record! It even has the original inner sleeve.
Please check out my other auctions this week: I am listing many rare psychedelic rock records. I obtained them several years ago when I worked at a record store, but now I need money for Europe and college. They came from an older record company executive, so most of them are promotional. It seems as if they were played very little, if at all, but some of the covers have gathered wear over the years. Please read each individual description carefully. I do my best to describe each record's condition, but am happy to answer questions or provide you with more pictures if necessary. Thank you!
