bumpers - album reviews

A bountiful double album package rounding up the cream of the UK Island label's 1970 output, highlighting recent releases and anticipating forthcoming ones and following, of course, a tradition launched by the earlier You Can All Join In and Nice Enough To Eat.

Of all the labels operating in the UK as the decade turned, Island was unquestionably the most adventurous, at the same time as maintaining a stable whose internal logic now seems impeccable. Leaning towards the folkier side of hard rock, and the bluesier edge of prog - an adventure that allowed King Crimson and Mott The Hoople to rub shoulders with Cat Stevens and Traffic - Island rounded up the cream of the British underground, and these periodic compilations showcased it at its best. Indeed, they frequently maintained a cohesion and sense of musical purpose that the artists themselves often struggled to match.

They were more than simple advertisements, however. Bumpers includes two genuine rarities, as both Mott The Hoople and Fairport Convention are represented by otherwise unavailable versions of their contributions ("Thunderbuck Ram" and "Walk Awhile" respectively), while efforts from the Keith Relf/Jim McCarty-era Renaissance, Clouds and Quintessence remind us of a day when even the greatest modern collectibles were regular new releases.

Island ranks among the most collectible British labels of the entire rock'n'roll era. Every track on

Bumpers offers another reason why. ~ Dave Thompson, All Music Guide

Never opened. Flawless, with no damage whatsoever.   M- Mint Minus
Has been opened, but is still flawless
with no damage whatsoever.   EX EXCELLENT Vinyl: Vinyl is clean, shiny, free from harse scratches, but may have a few light paper scuffs. Record must play without any loss in sound. Cover: May only have the the very faint signs of wear.   VG+ Very Good Plus

Vinyl: May have scuff marks and signs of some wear but
will still play almost perfectly throughout, with only
"barely detectable" crackles or pops. A slight noise at the
begining is allowable, but the remainder must be nearly flawless. Cover: May only have the slightest signs of normal wear.   VG Very Good

The majority of records (worth selling) fall under this grade. Vinyl: May crackle, pop or make other annoying noises, but only
occasionally,never continuously, and not more loudly than the
music being listened to. Cover: Normal used cover wear such as ring wear and split seams.
If there is abnormal damage such as tears or markings,
but the seller still feels that it qualifies as a "VG",
the damage must be described in comments attached to the item.   G+ Good Plus Vinyl: May have continuous crackles, pops, etc... but not so loud as to
make the music completely unlistenable or unenjoyable to the
casual listener.
Cover: More than normal wear and tear.     PACKING ITEM OR ITEMS ALL RECORDS ARE PACKAGED WELL OFTEN WITH EXTRA CARD , SECURED IN THICK OUTER CARD FOR SAFE SHIPPING!   postage & packing to the u.k. is £4.50 for one 12"/LP.  Any additional LP's please add £1.50 pound per item     postage & packing to the Europe Airmail only is £5.50 for one 12"/LP Any additional LP's please add £2.00 pounds per item     postage & packing to the U.S Airmail & Rest of the world is £9.00 for one 12"/LP Any additional LP's please add £2.00 pounds        Returns Policy:
