Kaleidoscope - Flight From Ashiya/ (Further Reflections) In The Room Of Percussion

(Fontana NL 1968)


Record Condition: VG+. Centre has been pushed out. In company bag.


Horribly rare Dutch only coupling of their debut A side with a probably the most psych track from their Tangerine Dream LP, which never made it to 45 anywhere else and boy, does this sound superb on 45. Their debut had already been released in Holland in 1967 coupled with the same B side as every other territory (Holidaymaker) and it sold as badly in Holland as everywhere else, so why this got a second pressing with a different B side is anyone's guess. I'm guessing it was pressed up to tie in with some continental dates the band were doing, probably as a promotional tool. It simply never turns up and this is the only copy I have ever found in 30 odd years. I have uploaded both sides to Youtube - listen below.


Listen to both sides taken from the actual 45 for sale:

I have been told I have to start selling off the majority of my collection. Apparently boxes and boxes of records are neither a good use of space, nor aesthetically pleasing. I disagree with both those opinions, but only under my breath. So for a quiet life I am offering the bulk of my collection accumulated over a 30 odd year period in batches of 20 or so a week over the coming months all starting at £2.50. I have always been much more interested in the obscure and the peculiar, particularly from the golden age of pop/rock - the late 60s and early 70s. So listed are many curios, obscurities and rarities I have found over the years, many demos and small labels. Musically they range from pure pop through to beat and psych, prog, folk and rock. I have upped my game recently and will now be uploading my 45s to Youtube so you can actually hear and see the 45s you will be bidding on.


Grading

M-:    As new, no marks of any kind whatsoever.

EX:    Perhaps a few featherlight whispy marks visible under bright light, but no scratches or deterioration in sound.

VG+: Some light marks on the vinyl, but nothing feelable that could cause clicks or pops, just occasional light surface noise.

VG:   Some heavier marks and maybe a few scratches that will cause some noise, but will still be a very enjoyable listen with definitely no sticks or    skips or constant surface noise.
