Description

The only album by former member of "Nero & The Gladiators", released in the summer of 1971 was one of the last albums to be released on the famous Vertigo Record label. Features great swingin' folk rock, with help from "Sandy Denny" and a few Spooky Tooth pals.

THOMAS F. BROWNE Wednesday's Child LP  [VEL1011] issued in the summer of 1971 on the Vertigo 'swirl' label featuring a stellar line-up including State Of Micky And Tommy sidekick [and future Foreigner legend] Mick Jones on guitar, Fotheringay/Fairport guitarist Jerry Donahue, bassist Pat Donaldson and Spooky Tooth's Gary Wright on keyboards. Such heavyweight backing, of course, dictates much of the ensuing mood, a gently rolling collection of ballads that fall into much the same bag as the period Strawbs and Mike Heron. But the power of the arrangements and some wonderfully atmospheric backing vocals from Doris Troy and Sue & Sunny readily salvage things, and songs like "Carry My Load" (with a breathtaking Jones guitar solo) and "Dark Eyed Lady"'s cheeky approximation of "Pinball Wizard"'s acoustic guitar hook are both supremely contagious, while "The Alamo" is as epic as the land it immortalizes.

The cover has a little ring wear on the rear of the gatefold sleeve, but nothing major.The inner gatefold is very clean. The front outer has minor creasing at the spine and a couple of minor marks on the surface. The vinyl has visible scuff marks, but the vinyl plays well. A fair rating based on visual would be VG+.VG+. However, I think the vinyl plays EX, SO IS A GOOD COPY FOR 39 YEARS OLD!!

Another interesting point with this record is that printed on the label is 'Not for sale promotional copy'

Any questions then please contact and if you decide to bid GOOD LUCK, I am sure you will not be disappointed
