Description

A very nice early repress (pink rim) from 1971, in great condition. Debut album by this Psychedelic Rock band.
Includes the original integral glued in booklet with shaped cut outs and coloured inner sleeve. The vinyl is lovely and clean. Looks like new. 
"Quintessence was a rock band formed in April 1969 in Notting Hill, London, England. Their style was a mixture of jazz, psychedelic rock and progressive rock with an influence of music from India. In Blissful Company is the first studio album by the English group Quintessence."
