What you are bidding on is a beautiful copy of WOODROFFE / GREENSLADE: THE PENTATEUCH OF THE COSMOGONN. This is a prog rock record, on EMI RECORDS, UK pressing. It's like shopping in a time warp! Nice copy. First pressing, no bar code. Comes complete with hard back book.
A hardback book and double vinyl album released in 1979, conceived, written and illustrated by Patrick Woodroffe, with music written and performed by Dave Greenslade. The title means, approximately, 'the first five books (pentateuch) of the creation (cosmogony)'.
The story and artwork within 'Pentateuch' concerns the discovery of an abandoned spacecraft in orbit around Jupiter, and the project to decipher the ideograms in the pentateuch 'document' discovered within. Most of the book is a retelling of the document, in much the same way as a modern translator might retell the contents of a Babylonian tablet or Egyptian papyrus scroll. Particularly remarkable is the combinatorial ideographic script created by Woodroffe and used throughout the artwork.
Greenslade contributes the 74 minutes of music as his second solo project, enlisting Phil Collins amongst others to help.
