First album dating from1971 by the excellent Spanish heavy prog band. This is usually reckoned to be one of the best heavy prog albums from mainland Europe, I usually treat descriptions like that with a whole bucketful of salt, allowing for the usual dealer hype, but in this case they may just be justified. This is great heavy power trio rock with a driving rhythm section, English (well, sort of) vocals on good songs and really tremendous screaming guitar on every track, imagine Jeff Beck playng guitar for Andromeda, excellent album, highly recommended to any fans of heavy proggy guitar bands!
This is a top quality reissue in great condition and comes with an attractive gatefold insert with loads of notes and photos and a foldout poster, all in great condition.

Condition: Sleeve
The front is very clean with no tears, no writing, no creasing. Has the beginnings of a circular indentation where the record sits but this isn’t serious.
The rear sleeve is also very clean with no real damage or era.
The top seam is totally unworn. The bottom seam has some moderate shelf wear. There’s also some very light wear to the spine and only about half of the writing is readable.
Both the insert and poster are in perfect condition.

Condition: Record
The record itself is in fine condition. It’s made from thickish vinyl and is a good clean pressing with excellent sound reproduction. It’s very clean and has retained a nice dark sheen. There’s no visible surface marks at all either in normal light or when held under a very revealing lamp.
Both labels are in perfect condition.
When played the record sounds just great. The sound is very detailed which suit’s the music perfectly allowing you to concentrate on the vocals as well as the superb guitar. The reproduction is clean and clear with no unwanted surface noise at all to spoil your enjoyment of the music, no repeating clicks or pops, no crackles, no groovewear or distortion, certainly no jumping or sticking.
All in all this is a nice clean enjoyable copy of a record which is hard to obtain on vinyl (or CD for that matter) in any form.
Payment by cheque preferred from UK buyers but paypal is available if necessary, overseas buyers must use paypal. Sorry but I will not post anything to Canada under any circumstances.
