Description
"Whatevershebringswesing" by Kevin Ayers. This record is in excellent condition but check the photos where I've tried to capture the condition accurately. There are no marks on the vinyl and or the sleeve. I have not tried to clean the vinyl as I don't have a means of doing this safely.
There seems to be many variations of this album so I will try and be clear about this release:
- It appears to be the re-press issue because the text around the top edge of the label mentions EMI and not The Gramophone Co. Ltd.
- The sleeve is textured gatefold
- Matrix / Runout (Side A): SHVL 800 A-1
- Matrix / Runout (Side B): SHVL 800 B-1
"Melancholic and reflective, Kevin Ayers' third solo effort, Whatevershebringswesing (this time sans the Whole World as a collective), finds the ultimate underachiever languishing in a realm of ballads, free (for the most part) from the façade and pretensions of prog rock that plagued the previous project. Released in January 1972, Whatevershebringswesing was Ayers' most commercially accessible album to date. The opening track, the "There Is Loving" suite, was both apropos and deceptive. The song picks up nicely from the previous album, linked by its Soft Machine/prog rock sound and fronting the lyrics from the single "Butterfly Dance"; however, for the very same reason, this was a deceptive opener for an album that was far removed from the prog subgenre. " - David Ross Smith (allmusic.com)
