Description
The TRAVEL AGENCY s/t SEALED 1968 Original VIVA Label SAN FRANCISCO PSYCH, ELEGANT POP
CONDITION: COVER - Beautiful, clean and colorful. Small, unobtrusive punch; slight corner and ring wear (part of which may be on the cellophane.)
Overlooked, fine LP with excellent melodies and clever lyrics. Has one of the great trippy LP covers from 1968 San Francisco, post Summer of Love.
From ROCKASTERIA: "Side One is the stronger; the haunting and stately neo-prog keyboard intro which blossoms into the poppy What's A Man, strong fuzztone on Cadillac George, and gentler love songs Lonely Seabird and So Much Love. There are fast commercial rockers (Make Love and Old Man) and catchy pop (That's Good)." - Max Waller with thanks to Jeff Jarema
Frank Davis (uncredited) was involved with the Texas band Fever Tree, and wrote “Grand Candy Young Sweet” for their second album.
Viva Records was started in 1966 as a subsidiary of Snuff Garrett Records and initially distributed by Dot Records.

GRADING
NM (Near Mint): A flawless copy. Looks great and is most likely unplayed. Like new. NM-: Probably played carefully once or twice. Near flawless copy.
VG++: Record may have a few light paper sleeve marks or scuffs that should not affect play. Visually will have some light marks but will play close to NM. A slight noise at the
beginning is allowable. Record has probably been played a few times but is still a very nice copy.
VG+: Record will show more noticeable marks and paper scuffs than VG++ and may have some very light surface noise and/or minor pops in part due to time and wear but still a nice copy and has been well taken care of.
VG: Record will have more noticeable surface noise in parts and more discernible light scuffs and/or scratches, and pops. Still plays well with no skipping.
VG-: Vinyl will have some very considerable pops and noise.
