Description
Gordon Giltrap 1st 1968 TRANSATLANTIC UK LP
Original UK pressing on the Transatlantic label from 1968. The record is in NEAR MINT condition and the laminated flipback sleeve is in excellent condition. Check my other records for his second album.
First album from 12 string wizard Gordon Giltrap. Gordon Giltrap was born in 1948 and started to learn the guitar at age 12. Never receiving any formal tuition on the instrument, he gradually developed his own style and technique, considered unique by many other guitarists. His musical career started to take off in the 1960s, playing live in London in the burgeoning folk scene, alongside contemporaries such as Bert Jansch (who greatly influenced the young guitarist), John Renbourn and Mike Oldfield. At age 18 he signed to Transatlantic Records and released this album in 1968. It has a laminated flipback sleeve, making it a first pressing. It is very hard to find.
The sleeve notes contain the following: “It's very likely that Gordon Giltrap will become a guitarist's guitarist.” That's certainly right and he's still around after numerous albums, tours and articles on guitar playing.
