"Indian Summer"...
PLEASE NOTE..Non UK buyers will HAVE to pay tax on this..It's out of my control!.
It's time to have a clear out..I have about 40 interesting and elusive albums to list,so keep having a look!.I can combine post.
The third album on the short lived Neon label ..Neon was created by Olav Wyper (He created Vertigo!) to keep up with the likes of Deram,Harvest,Island,Dawn and of course Vertigo..Somehow,the label did not take off like it's rivals..You would have thought that with his experience Neon could have done better than Fairweather and Chris McGregor! (Ok,Spring,Ton Ton Macoute,Shape Of The Rain and Running Man take some beating!)...RCA already had Andromeda,Synanthesia and Fynn McCool (to mention just a few!)...And the label design is hardly inspiring! (what has Boticelli got to do with Neon?)....
Anyway,I digress..
This is quality prog from the early 70's..It's got all the trade marks..Slabs of Hammond Organ,tasty guitar,intricate drum patterns and bass lines,time and key changes and above all,some great songs..
Clean playing copies are not easy to find any more..
Issued in 1971..(NE 3)..UK pressing in a non laminated EJ Day gatefold sleeve..Complete with it's original polylined black inner which is a bit creased but unsplit..It's a first pressing...Never re issued on vinyl until Akarma did it in 2002..
Side 1 has 3 light hairlines on track one..The rest of the side is undamaged (As is side 2)...Both sides play perfectly with a great sound quality...No jumps..No sticking no surface noise..No edge warps..(Played on a Sure cartridge at 2G)..
The A label has a VERY discreet squiggle in biro,otherwise undamaged labels..There is not much spindle wear..I doubt that this has had much play.....
There is light ringwear with the front having the most..The front also has light scuffing (through the colour in a few places) and a small label tear on the Neon logo..There is a little cornerwear and the edges show slight rubbing....The spine is unbroken and all the text is clearly legible.. It has no major defects or damage,just a little worn is all!
I hope that between the pictures and the description you get a good idea of what is on offer..If you need any more info just get in touch!..
