Some words on this issue: GARRICK, MICHAEL: “Mr. Smith’s Apocalypse” (London/ King Records – SLC(A)426) Original Japan first press issue from 1972. Comes housed in Japan only jacket art. Michael Garrick’s 1971 Argo album was recorded under the name of Garrick’s Fairground (conducted by Peter Mound); it is a jazz cantata with music by Garrick and words by poet and Garrick collaborator John Smith. Alongside the pianist, this compelling work features the Somerford Junior School Choir conducted by Mary Tickner, and the instrumental prowess of Don Rendell and Art Themen (saxes, reeds), Norma Winstone (voice), Coleridge Goode (double bass) and Henry Lowther (trumpet, flugelhorn). Also included is Garrick Fairground’s rare, two-track 1971 Epiphany Argo EP, featuring the same line-up as Mr Smith’s Apocalypse, except that Dave Green (double bass) replaces Coleridge Killer, deep spiritual jazz with vocals of Norma Winstone

Excellent: record has hardly no visible defects and is preserved with care and attention, the condition most collectors take pride in to file away. Near Mint: a dash below mint, just perfect. Mint: like new.
