Note:  Incredibly rare and sought after album that essentially no one knew about until the indie rock band Vetiver (with Vashti Bunyan on vocals) covered the song Sleep A Million Years. That was more than 4 years ago and to my knowledge this is the first copy to be offered for sale. Far from a one tracker, I included so many soundclips because I thought nearly all the songs were just as strong as the one Vetiver chose to cover. Sparse but effective and well played instrumentation accompanies these well written and at times very personal, painful songs. Apparently all the songs were written by San Jose, CA resident Dia Joyce, but the totally mysterious Kathy Heideman was brought on board to sing them. If you want to read some more background on Dia Joyce and of how Vetiver came to cover the song, there's a good writeup on the blog snoreandguzzle which you can find with some simple googling. Check my other auctions this week for a nice selection of psych, folk, singer-songwriter, private press oddities, aor, lounge, hard rock, metal, xian and more. All soundclips are recorded directly from the record with no alteration to sound. Win multiple auctions to save money on shipping. U.S. customers will get their second and third LPs shipped for free!

Grading: I grade conservatively on a scale of NM, VG++, VG+, VG, VG-, G.
