Matrix No:  DU 1001

 

Private pressing from 1978 on the EMI custom label. Rare as RHS.  Hard to classify but certainly progressive and tinges of excellent guitar from Mick Pandelis here and there. Great keyboards (Ken Bunguric) throughout too. The standout track is “Drive On” the but all of the songs are good and all but one is written by the bass player Henry Correy.

 

Record in great shape VG+ to EX. Condition wise the record appears little played -Full gloss vinyl. Minor background noise here and there including a couple of minor pops on the first track on side 1. Minor scuff marks throughout that don’t materially affect play.

Cover has some major creasing in the lamination especially in one corner and wear near the edges in a couple of places. Every copy I have seen has the same issues. It has minor corner dings elsewhere. The centre of the back cover may have suffered water damage (see Photos). VG Labels are excellent, with minor spindle marks VG+.
