Genesis

'A Trick Of The Tail'

Charisma, 1976

CDS 4001

AS ENGLISH as progressive rock gets, this is an amazing album from an amazing band. The great thing about the seventies was undoubtedly the fact that record labels and bands only cared about the music - if it sold, Great. If it stiffed, who cared! Genesis, like so many others at the time, absolved themselves of the pressures to score hit singles by engaging in what was termed album rock. They created a carefully crafted work that exhibited a beginning, a middle and, more often than not, an end to their madness. 'A Trick Of The Tail' is a near perfect statement from a band fast recovering from Peter Gabriel's departure.

Sit and marvel at the pulsing beauty of 'Dance On A Volcano', 'Squonk', 'Los Endos' and the 'Robbery, Assault & Battery' and then replace the needle in the grooves and start all over again. Heaven can indeed wait.

Cover manufactured in the UK by Robor Ltd.

This auction is part of a fantastic collection of seventies rock which I was lucky enough to acquire. Most of these records were stored with the utmost care and sparsely played. Some were possibly never played or may have been for just a handful of times.

Pressing: Charisma, UK, 1976

Vinyl: Super clean and shiny condition with only minor signs of any use - displays some spindle marks but virtually no signs of other use. Grades as top MINT-!

Cover: Again, virtually no signs of use. Issued in a beautifully illustrated textured gatefold cover. As you know, it is virtually impossible to find these original covers with out blemishes or storage/handling marks - this one is in super nice shape. Sharp corners, no dings, no bends, no ring wear, no split seams and no creases. Spine is perfectly straight, wide and stiff. Just a hint of sun bleaching on the spine - nothing serious. Grades as MINT-!

Inserts: Lyric inner sleeve

Matrix:

Side One: CDS 4001 A//1

Side Two: CDS 4001 B//3
