This is the 2nd album to be released by the heavy psych blues band who came from Salisbury Southern Rhodesia (now Harare Zimbabwe) Superb heavy blues ala Free with wailing vocals and harmonica and thunderous guitar work, yet with quieter psych and prog overtones thanks to the liberal use of flute and acoustic guitar.
IF YOU ARE A SERIOUS PROG ROCK COLLECTOR YOU WILL WANT THIS AMAZING RARITY
It is regarded world wide as one of the rarest lps to come out of South Africa (or worldwide for that matter of fact). Otis Waygood were contemporaries of Freedom’s Children, Suck & Abstract Truth, all now extremely collectable gems from South Africa and this specific lp is included in Hans Pokora’s most collectable record series (3 Discs)
The cover which is textured gatefold, is a very clean copy with clean edges, no spine splits, blemishes or spoiling. In fact it shows little aging and is the best copy ever to have come through our hands. We have conservatively rated it at a high VG+.
It hardly ever turns up and when it does it is usually in a very poor condition. The textured cover. discolours easily and the edges normally show wear & tear.
However more importantly is the general quality of the disc itself which we have graded at VG+ which is a very conservative estimate because there is very little surface noise, especially on the quieter songs. There is a very mild scuffing on one side which does not affect playback. The album had been machine cleaned with an industrial Record Cleaner and sounds superb.
THEY JUST DO NOT COME MUCH RARER THAN THIS!
Please note: Excludes Shipping: $20 worldwide with tracking.
