Rarest and best UK major label acid psych folk LP

absolutely unique and quintessentially British psych folk

easily one of the hardest UK albums to find in top shape, rarest CBS album.

The absolute rarity of this album is not to be underestimated. It hardly ever surfaces nowadays. This is an absolutely gorgeous slab of early quality CBS vinyl which is in great EX+ condition!! This has a lovely deep glossy sheen!! Hauntingly beautiful songcraft!!! Immense quality psych folk album that ticks all the right boxes and incredibly hard to find. This goes into a small list of top psych folk albums with Nick Drake, Spirogyra and Dr Strangely Strange. I have twenty five years experience in grading. It doesn't get much better than this!!

FIRST ALBUM OF THIS SUPERBAND THAT HARDLY SOLD AT ALL BUT IS NOW VERY SOUGHT AFTER BY PROG CONNOISEURS

A CLASSIC FOLK/PROGRESSIVE LP THAT SHOULD BE IN EVERY QUALITY PROG/FOLK COLLECTION - if you cannot buy this you should at least try and get a re-issue and enjoy!

Please, also have a look at my other prog, psych and metal albums on sale this week.

!!!!AN IMPOSSIBLE FIND!! A few hundred of the LP were ever sold!!! This is SOOOOOOOOOOO very rare!!!!!

BACK IN 1970 WHEN THIS LP WAS FIRST RELEASED, IT ONLY EVER SOLD IN ABSOLUTELY TINY AMOUNTS - AS A RESULT IT IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND INCREDIBLY HARD TO LOCATE TODAY!!!! 

In all my years this is only the first time I have come across this Psych/Folk MONSTER. Immensely scarce and probably the hardest album to find on Island!! Sensational sound quality, I have played this through in its entirety and it was a great joy!!! NO skips or jumps. NO clicks or crackle, this is really a stunning heavy glossy jet black vinyl .The audio is impeccable. Inspected under an intense light source and angled.

Vinyl: EX++  A great vinyl!!! I have played this in FULL twice over> The replay is ASTOUNDING!!! I first played for a general listen and a second time for a more detailed observation. Barely played as attested by the total lack of wear on the edge of the spindle hole. Fantastic songcraft!! A personal favourite of mine and I am very glad to be able to report that this is a fine slab of vinyl without any problems at all and as such worthy of inclusion of any great psych folk collection. Immaculate sound. Of course NO jumps/clicks/skips etc.

Sleeve: EX.  A very thin matt single sleeve that is very vulnerable indeed, it will deteriorate by just even looking at it. This one is a great example without any smudges and no writing. A couple of tiny creases near the spine but just very light. Very light edge storage wear. Straight edges. A super crisp opening. The spine is 100% with all lettering boldly visible. It will be very hard to better this one. 

It still has the original inner CBS advertising sleeve in great condition with bands such as Byrds, Skin Alley, Soft Machine.

 This is a unique investment opportunity!!! The next psych album to go completely through the roof. Finding this album in any condition at all is nearly impossible so late in the day. Get this while you still can. This value of the album is only going to go one way ... up and up ... until it will be totally unavailable at all for a reasonable price.

Important : International postage will be registered and insured if over GBP 30.00.  Please wait for my invoice before paying. Postage will be according to Royal Mail rates. Postage is NOT a money spinning exercise for me.

Though there are rarely ever any problems with my items, I always try my very best to describe everything exactly!  PLEASE REMEMBER to contact me FIRST,  if you have any problems at all, before you leave feedback and star ratings, so I get a chance to turn any negative experience into a positive one!  I can always happily sort anything out for you, if you let me know you have a problem!  This way no one has to leave Negative/Neutral feedback - and we both walk away happy! Similarly with the amount of stars, anything less than a full 5 * rating is effectively detrimental to a seller's rating as lower ratings will incur higher Final Value Fees  and lower priority in the bidlists eventually making it unattractive to list items on Ebay at all. I know of at least one major previous Ebay seller who has decided not to list via Ebay again. Please do NOT bid if you cannot give me at least 1 chance to sort everything out to your FULL satisfaction in the unlikely event of a problem.  Thanks again!!
