Description
From my personal collection, this is an ULTRA-RARE AUTOGRAPHED UK pressing on Ron's own Headrest label, catalog number RON 28. I purchased this used in about 1995, I think.
Most famous for having collaborated with Pink Floyd on "Atom Heart Mother" and Roger Waters on "Music from The Body", this has precious little to do with Floyd...it's a musical universe of its own. This was evidently one of the last 30 copies in possession of the artist, as the autograph on front reads "NO. 10 OF LAST 30...10/6/92". The ink is evidently not water-resistant, as there is a smudge on "10"...
The vinyl is PLAY GRADED a very solid VG+, with a just a little minor surface noise here and there in the quiet bits. I played this in its entirety recently, and it was a great listen! The cover is solid VG+, with the biggest problems being a spine ding right over the artist's last name, some minor laminate issues (typical!) and little minor shelf wear and creasing. Please see the photos for a general lay of the land!
