Description

This is a fine original US pressing copy of the debut solo LP by Soft Machine founding member Kevin Ayers, released in 1969.  The thick gatefold jacket has only cosmetic flaws: some light ring, corner, and seam wear (EX).  Visually, side 1 of the disc is clean with some light scuffing, while side 2 has a couple of small scratches and some superficial scuffing and hairline scrapes.  It plays with light surface noise between tracks and in some of the quieter passages.  Overall EX-.  The record comes with the original Harvest label inner sleeve (see pix).

I am in the process of selling off a large personal collection amassed over two decades.  All discs have been stored in plastic lined inner sleeves separate from their sleeves.  The sleeves have been stored in plastic sleeves.  Many records were purchased new.  Most were played just 1-2 times and taped.  I have visually graded discs except where otherwise noted, and have tried to err on the side of caution when imperfections are apparent.

If you'd like to order multiple items, I'll happily combine them so that you won't have to pay multiple shipping charges.
