Description
UK Sonet SNTF612, 1969 (this is one of only two copies of the UK release I've ever seen which suggests it's actually rarer than the 1967 US Takoma release). An extraordinary album- saying it's ragas played on an acoustic 12-string is oversimplifying it, as Basho's musical influences stretch to Persia and Japan, not just India. Sleeve bit less than EX; front laminated, back not, so back bit discoloured with age, some creasing to front. The inner seems to be the original. Labels clean, record looks virtually unplayed but I refuse to use the M word so I'll say EX. The front of the LP says it's stereo but it's "electronically rechannelled". [i.e. mock stereo made from a mono tape by cutting all the high frequencies from one channel and all the lows from the other; this was done quite a lot in the 60's and early 70's].
